Concrete candle "Big Black" – Handmade vegan candle with fragrance & character

The concrete candle “Big Black” is more than just a candle

It is a symbol of passionate craftsmanship, modern design, and sustainable materials. With its black concrete container, minimalist look, and warm vanilla toffee scent, it brings warmth and elegance to your home. Each candle is handcrafted in the Southern Black Forest and is truly unique. At SteinKunstWerk, you'll find the "Big Black" concrete candle , a stylish, handmade vegan candle that combines design, sustainability, and sensuality.

Warm flair for autumn & winter

When lit, the "Big Black" exudes a delicious scent of roasted vanilla toffee. This aroma evokes cozy evenings in front of the fireplace, a sense of peace and comfort during the darker months of the year. Three cotton wicks ensure an even, bright flame pattern and create an atmosphere that transforms any room into a cozy oasis. Whether as a decoration in the living room, the dining area, or as part of your Zen oasis – the candle brings atmospheric light into your home.

The scent and warm light also make them interesting for aromatherapy , where candles and scents have been used for centuries to promote well-being and relaxation.

A unique piece from the Southern Black Forest

The makers, Susanne and Stephan from DochtFreunde, handcraft each concrete candle individually. The approximately 1.5 kg concrete container is sealed with a special oil to make it durable and robust. Small bumps, air bubbles, or fine textures in the material are not defects, but rather underscore the authentic character of the handcraft. Unlike painted containers, the concrete in the "Big Black" is dyed throughout – pigments are added directly to the mixture, creating a deep, even black. This gives the candle a modern and elegant appearance.
