Join us in the atmospheric setting of Abney Park for an evening of candle-making, inspired by the lost roses of this historic 19th-century rosarium, once home to over 1,000 rose varieties.

In this hands-on workshop, you’ll craft a floral beeswax candle using WAX Atelier’s unique materials and techniques. Guided by our artisans, you’ll shape delicate wax petals and leaves, drawing inspiration from imagined rose specimens of the past.

Explore texture and form before completing your creation with the ancient art of wax dipping—a meditative process that seals your candle with lasting beauty.

The workshop is part of The Lost Rosarium of Abney: an immersive exhibition of lifelike, fragrant wax roses that reimagine the lost botanical wonders of Abney Park, as part of London Craft Week 2025.
