Douglas Little and Company




Mr. Douglas Little, Modern Alchemist and Purveyor of Curious Goods, founded his company, D.L. & Co. with the desire to bring objects of opulence and beauty to those who yearn for the uncommon and exclusive. His candles are amongst the very best in the world. The elegance, thoughtfulness and attention to detail that is brought to every offering from D.L. & Co. is not only Most Excellent but exquisite. Please click on each photo below to learn more about the many facets that comprise a D.L. & Co. candle.

As Mr. Little states, "every item is intended to unfold like a love letter, each detail revealing a procession of small delights. Like the purveyors of curious goods in previous ages, every item is intended to stir and enthrall each and every one of the senses, from the sleek feel of the carefully selected silk ribbons to the intoxicating atmospheres of the handmade fragrances. My love of rare botanica, arcane curiosities and long-forgotten sensations compel me to offer these modern heirlooms.

Alchemy is the art of transformation; like those alchemists before me, I aspire to turn leaden monotony into golden bliss. Through the intertwined poetry of the senses D.L. & Co. intends to transform the mundane into the magnificent.

Thus, I humbly extend my hand in greeting and invitation..."
