SUSTAINABILITY AT
GALLERIA LUCIA
At Galleria Lucia, beauty should never come at the cost of the earth. Every candle we create carries not only light, but also respect - for nature, for people, and for the quiet art of living sustainably.
WAX THAT RESPECTS NATURE
Our candles are made exclusively from vegan, 100% natural, and biodegradable waxes - primarily soy and stearin. We are proudly paraffin-free, because toxins and petroleum-based waxes have no place in a home filled with art and warmth.
Our wax is ethically and sustainably sourced: grown on farms that protect biodiversity, enrich the soil rather than deplete it, and ensure that farmers are paid fairly for their craft. Each candle becomes a story of integrity, from field to flame.
When you light one of our candles, you are lighting an eco-friendly choice - a small gesture that carries the weight of care for the planet.
WICKS THAT BURN CLEAN
Not all candles are created equal. Many still use lead or metal-core wicks to achieve even burning – but these wicks release toxic fumes and heavy metals into the air.
At Galleria Lucia, we refuse compromise. Our candles are made only with 100% natural cotton wicks and eco-friendly wooden wicks. These ensure a non-toxic, clean burn – free from lead, zinc, and harmful chemicals.
Cotton wicks offer a steady flame, while wooden wicks crackle softly, adding warmth and atmosphere. Both are sustainable and biodegradable, chosen with your health and the planet in mind.
ZERO-WASTE CRAFTSMANSHIP
In our Berlin studio, nothing goes to waste.
Every wax scrap, off-cut, and test pour is remelted and given new life. What doesn’t become one candle simply becomes another.
This zero-waste approach means that our artistry is circular, not linear. Nothing is discarded, and everything is honored. Our candles remind us that sustainability is not about perfection, but about thoughtful cycles of renewal.
REUSABLE CANDLE VESSELS & REFILLS
At Galleria Lucia, beauty never ends
when the flame goes out.
Many of our candle vessels are designed to be refilled or reused, eliminating waste and extending the life of each piece. From our crystal candles with wax refills to our Leveche collection featuring reusable wavy glass, every design is created with longevity in mind.
This means our customers don’t just buy a candle – they invest in an everlasting object of art that continues to illuminate their home. By offering refillable options and multi-purpose vessels, we make sustainability not just a principle, but a lifestyle.
PACKAGING WITHOUT PLASTIC
Every detail matters - even the box your candle arrives in.
That is why our packaging is 100% plastic-free. We use recycled and natural papers, sourced responsibly, so that unboxing is as kind to the planet as it is beautiful.
The designs themselves are hand-drawn by a local artist, turning each package into a work of art in its own right. The box is not an afterthought - it is part of the story. A reminder that sustainable packaging can be both ethical and exquisite.
OUR VALUES IN
EVERY DETAIL
For us, sustainability is not a trend – it is a philosophy.
Every choice, from wax to wick to packaging, is made with purpose. Our candles are eco-friendly, sustainable, and consciously crafted so that you can enjoy the candle that feels as good as it looks.
At Galleria Lucia, we believe that true luxury is thoughtful, that art can be responsible, and that beauty belongs in harmony with the planet.
