About the collection

Chiije brings refined fragrance into everyday rituals. Hand poured in Oslo, their 100% plant based candles are known for deep, layered scents and a quiet Nordic elegance. Shared belief in sustainable design and the lasting value of handmade objects has resulted in two collaboration collections: the Candle-Mug and the Chiije Mugs. Each ceramic vessel is slip cast by hand, made to be treasured long after the candle has burned.
Burn it. Wash it. Drink from it.

Closeup of the Latvian red clay

Raw materials

We use high quality red clay. Its distinctive red color is caused by iron oxide in the clay. The clay is known for its exceptional quality and has been prized by potters and ceramics artists for centuries. It is also highly durable and resistant to heat. Although a popular choice for brick-making, with our innovation the red clay has transformed into a unique and durable tableware.

 

Craftsmanship and technique

Our technique has been passed down to us by our ancestors along with the appreciation of the art of pottery. Each piece is crafted by hand, resulting in unique and durable tableware, that’s unmatched by mass-produced alternatives.
