Emancipation Proclamation Candle

Commemorate one of the most defining moments in American history with our Emancipation Proclamation Candle, inspired by President Abraham Lincoln’s 1862 declaration of freedom. Issued during the Civil War, the Emancipation Proclamation proclaimed that all enslaved people in the rebelling states “shall be then, thenceforward, and forever free,” forever transforming the nation’s moral and political course.

This candle captures the warmth and hope of that historic moment with a rich, uplifting scent blend of cranberry, spiced pumpkin, and crisp apple, balanced by notes of clove, plum, and cinnamon. As it burns, it evokes the spirit of renewal and liberty that Lincoln’s words still inspire today.

Hand-poured in the USA, this amber glass candle adds a touch of historical significance and seasonal comfort to any room — perfect for history enthusiasts, educators, or anyone who values freedom and reflection.
