Glaze Studio U Candle Refill

Now more than ever, it feels so important to make our spaces feel like a safe haven. A simple way to do this is being intentional about the sensory experience of our home. Lighting and other simple comforts can be the difference between a room full of stuff and a space that truly works on us as we sit inside of it. The secret always lies in the details. This is why I was immediately smitten with glaze: their designs reinvent classics, always with a stroke of genius and a spark for modern invention. The beloved U-Candle is double trouble. Feel the burn. 

glaze is a lifestyle product design studio based in New York City. The husband and wife duo behind the studio, Akeem and Stephanie Glaze, launched their namesake in 2017 to create authentic, quality items designed with distinct attention to detail. With equal emphasis placed on form, function, and experience, glaze’s products make for arresting, yet subdued, statement pieces for the home. Each piece is carefully crafted and subtly infused with influences from the duo’s roots in Palm Beach and the Northeast.

They will be the first to say that Innovation through form, material, and utility is an integral part of their design process. Through hand sketches, mock-ups, digital modeling, and 3D printing, they are able to quickly produce usable prototypes in order to perfect form and function before moving forward with production. They believe that problem solving through experimentation is crucial to developing inspiring design solutions.

All finishing work is done in-house at glaze’s studio in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. This is where the products come to life. The glaze team meticulously completes each piece by hand, ensuring all details are in place for a consistent final product experience.

We’re crazy about the U-Candle, aka the perfect gift for the most inspiring host in your life, even if that means you.
