Welcome to Gouwsblom
Where every candle tells a story
Rooted in the stillness of South Africa’s Karoo, each Gouwsblom candle is lovingly handcrafted – inspired by cherished childhood memories, the raw beauty of the Karoo landscape, and our unwavering faith in the One who lights our way.
Founded in June 2023, Gouwsblom is more than a candle company – it’s a reflection of tradition, heartfelt craftsmanship, and the grace of God in everyday moments. The calm and simplicity of the Karoo continues to inspire every scent, every design, every flame.
Our hope is that every candle brings more than just light – that it carries peace, warmth, and the quiet assurance of God’s presence into your home.
"For God, who said, ‘Let light shine out of darkness,’ made his light shine in our hearts..." - 2 Corinthians 4:6
Let Gouwsblom light your way – one flame, one story, one blessing at a time.
