Askew Candles Darlington Bottling Company Beeswax Candle

This beautiful beeswax candle is designed in the shape of a Darlington Bottling Company bottle, with a tapered neck for a smooth burn.

It’s perfect for adding a touch of charm to your home or as a decorative piece on your mantelpiece. The antique bottle design pays homage to Darlington, the birthplace of the steam train, and captures the town’s industrious history. Although the company is long abandoned, its signage still stands on Gladstone Street. A 1958 newspaper ad reveals that the company once bottled mineral water, spirits, tonics, beer, cordials, and high-class table waters.
