Description
Handcrafted in Teotitlán del Valle, Oaxaca, these beautiful skull candles are made entirely by hand using 100% natural beeswax.
Adorned with delicate floral details, each candle is a unique expression of Oaxacan artistry and tradition. No two are exactly alike, so the one you receive is truly yours.
On your altar, candles light the way for the ones we are remembering. Place one at the center, or group a few together at different heights for a warm, glowing display. Even unlit, it is a piece you will want to keep on display.
A beautiful and meaningful addition to your Día de Muertos altar, created to honor and welcome our loved ones with warmth and light.
Always burn on a heat-safe surface and never leave a flame unattended. Because every piece is made by hand, size, shape, and color vary slightly. That is the point.
REAL INGREDIENTS. REAL DIFFERENCE.
Four pillars that guide everything we make.
We source with intention from Mexico, landrace corn, Colima sea salt, Mexican chiles, blue agave and more. Every ingredient has a place, a story, and a reason for being here.
No seed oils. No artificial preservatives. No unnecessary additives. Just recognizable ingredients made for real cooking, real flavor and everyday use.
Our products are made in small batches to protect flavor, texture and quality. Nothing is rushed, over-processed or stripped of what makes it special.
Matriarca was created to honor the ingredients, techniques and women behind Mexican kitchens. These are pantry staples made with the respect Mexican food has always deserved.
Read the label. You’ll see the difference.
