"Our company was founded in 1976 by John and Gayle Luck and their son Trey. Initially, the company just made candles for their own retail shop located in Gatlinburg, TN. But soon after, the company transitioned into becoming a manufacturer for other stores and shops too. Over the next 40 years, The Candle Cottage was blessed to grow from a family garage to its current home within a 40,000 square foot facility located in the foothills of the beautiful, Great Smoky Mountains, Tennessee. Our highly scented and long burning candles are made with lead free wicks and only the finest waxes, dyes, and fragrances available. We offer a large variety of delightful fragrances in an assortment of reusable glass jar containers. We have over thirty years of candle making expertise, developed by highly skilled candle craftsmen here in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains in Tennessee. "
