There is something special about the air in North Carolina. If you live here, you know exactly what we mean. It is fresh and crisp in the winter. It smells like sweet pine and earth in the summer. At Zyndl, we do not just make candles. We capture the spirit of our home in King, NC.
We are proud to be a black-owned business based in the foothills. We believe that where a product is made matters just as much as how it is made.
The North Carolina Collection
We draw our biggest inspiration from the land around us. We created a special line of candles that tell the story of our state. These scents transport you to your favorite local spots.
The Boone Candle This has been our best seller everywhere we go since 2024. If you love the high country, this scent is for you. It is a perfect mixture of sweet pine, ozone, and petrichor. It smells exactly like a fresh rain shower in the mountains.
From the Mountains to the Coast We did not stop at Boone. We wanted to capture the entire state. We often visit the North Carolina State Parks to find the perfect notes for our next creation.
- Mount Mitchell: This candle is for the nature lover. It smells like deep, fresh pine trees.
- Stone Mountain: This scent captures the earthy smell of moss and petrichor found on the rocky trails.
- Hanging Rock & The Appalachian Mountains: These candles bring the crisp, wild air of the peaks right into your living room.
- Outer Banks: We also love the coast. This candle smells like salty air, warm sand, and ocean water. It feels like a summer drive on Highway 12.
Small Batch Quality from King, NC
We choose to pour our wax right here in King. We are not a giant factory with noisy machines. We are a small studio that focuses on details. Every single candle is mixed, poured, and labeled by hand.
This slower process allows us to control the quality. We check every wick and every jar. We want to make sure that when you light a Zyndl candle, it burns cleanly and evenly.
Catch Us at Fairs and Festivals
We do not have a traditional storefront that you can walk into. Instead, we bring the shop to you. We love being part of the community. That is why we travel to fairs, festivals, and vendor events all over North Carolina.
You might see our booth at a lively street festival like MayFest in Pilot Mountain or a holiday market in Raleigh. Meeting our customers face-to-face is the best part of our job. It lets you smell the Boone candle in person before you buy. It also lets us hear what scents you want us to make next.
When you buy from us, you are supporting a local maker. You are keeping money in the North Carolina economy. Whether you order online or visit our pop-up tent, you get a piece of North Carolina craftsmanship sent straight to your door.
