About

Founded in 2018 by Carl Tomkinson & Olivia Watson, Helm London is a creator of luxury artisanal candles, made from sustainable and ethically sourced ingredients that not only smell great, but are underpinned by our values.

At our core, we believe that simplicity is key to achieving a fulfilling and purposeful life. That's why we specialise in minimalist candle designs that complement any decor while maintaining our commitment to ethical and sustainable production practices.

Our candles are vegan and free from any animal by-products, ensuring that we are doing our part to promote a cruelty-free future. Additionally, we use eco-friendly soy wax and cotton wicks to reduce our environmental impact and promote sustainability.

We lovingly hand-pour each candle in small batches to ensure that we maintain our high standards of quality. Each scent is meticulously hand-blended and tested to ensure that each of our candles passes our standards and quality checks. 

We are fortunate to have been featured in publications such as Vanity Fair, World of Interiors, Brides, GQ, The Independent, The Sunday Telegraph, House & Garden, Glamour, WIRED, You Mag, and Tatler. We are also honoured to have collaborated with brands like Max Mara, World of Interiors, Elle Magazine, Harper’s Bazaar, and Global.

Our brand's commitment to minimalism means that we focus on creating candles that provide an inviting and relaxing ambiance without overwhelming your senses. We believe that simplicity and mindfulness go hand in hand and our candles reflect that philosophy.

We hope that you will join us on our journey towards a more sustainable, ethical, and minimalist lifestyle.
