About Prices Candles
Price's Candles is one of Britain's most historic candle brands, founded in 1830 by William Wilson and Benjamin Lancaster as Edward Price and Co. The company began with a candle factory at Vauxhall in London and pioneered innovative candle-making techniques using coconut fats. By 1900, Price's had grown to become the largest candle manufacturer in the world, employing over 2,300 staff. The brand's prestige is underlined by its Royal Warrant, held continuously since the 1850s for the supply of candles to the Royal household. Price's stearin composite candles gained particular fame around the time of Queen Victoria's wedding in 1840, establishing the company's reputation for quality. Today, Price's remains one of the largest candle suppliers in the United Kingdom. Modern Price's is headquartered in Bedford, having moved from London in 2001. The company is now owned by Italian firm SER, with manufacturing at their Turin facilities. Despite international ownership, Price's maintains its British identity and continues to supply candles across the UK. Their range includes everyday tealights, dinner candles, and specialist products like the Chef's odour eliminating candles and Open Window room freshening tealights.
