Our story


Established in 2021 by Eirene Kiratzopoulos. Fotia Candles was born from the desire to create Luxury Candles that no home has seen before. Candles inspired by greek mythology and the Mediterranean spirit .

How it started:

It started just a few years ago when I decided to indulge into my creative impulses.

During covid it was particularly difficult to juggle schooling whilst being in isolation. I remember making a visit to a local craft store and bought some wax and moulds to begin DIY-ing. I didn’t expect to fall in love with such a hobby nor did I expect that it would become my new found passion.

so, I began to learn more about candle making and after 6 months of practise and making candles for friends and family, I decided that this needed to be more than just a hobby. I began  through social media and took the time to work on my skills.

As each day goes by, Fotia candles only gets bigger and I would love nothing more than to help you execute the most wonderful smelling home of your dreams.
