GroveTop Studio™ Soy Candles with a Hidden Gem - Hearts of the Grove™
Bring the calm of the grove into your home.
Hand-poured beneath the centuries-old oaks at Oak Haven, our GroveTop Studio soy candles are crafted with care, clean ingredients, and a deep appreciation for the natural world. Each candle is made with 100% soy wax, lead-free wooden wicks, and phthalate-free fragrance-free coloring oils, giving you a long-lasting, clean burn you can feel good about.
Available in 8oz and 16 oz amber jars, these candles fill your space with warm, grounded scents inspired by the grove itself.
This candle is part of our Gems of the Grove series, where each piece reveals a hidden stone heart beneath the wax - a small treasure meant to feel like something the forest slowly uncovers as the flame burns down.
Every candle includes a heart gemstone selected specifically for that candle’s color-scheme (see our guide below). A complimentary 8" by 1.1" wooden grove stone excavation tool is also included.

Whether you are unwinding at the end of the day, setting a calm mood while you work, or gifting someone a little piece of the grove, these candles bring warmth, comfort, and nature-inspired charm to any space.
The Gems of the Grove concept reflects our belief that nature’s treasures are revealed gradually; each candle burns down to uncover a polished stone heart waiting quietly at the bottom.
Light a flame, breathe deep, and let the grove come to you.
Hidden Gemstone by Candle Color-Scheme
14+ Unique Gems, 8 Distinct Colors & Energies
Each Hearts of the Grove candle includes a hidden gemstone heart at the bottom of the wax. The stone you’ll discover matches the candle color you choose:
-
White → Clear Quartz or Opalite
Clarity • Balance • Amplification -
Green → Green Aventurine or Bloodstone
Renewal • Growth • Luck -
Blue → Sodalite or Lapis Lazuli
Calm • Intuition • Insight -
Pink → Rose Quartz
Comfort • Compassion • Emotional Healing -
Red → Red Agate or Red Jasper
Strength • Grounding • Motivation -
Yellow → Yellow Jade or Topaz
Confidence • Protection • Focus -
Purple → Amethyst
Insight • Protection • Inner Peace -
Lucky Strike (Black) → Obsidian or Tiger's Eye (1 in 12)
Grounding • Protection • Insight -
Unidentified Specimen → Artist's Choice (Random Draw)
In our Lucky Strike candles, there’s a 1-in-12 chance of uncovering a rare Tiger’s Eye. If you’re lucky enough to reveal one, you may trade it in for a larger hand-polished Tiger’s Eye sphere — a true ‘orb of the Grove’ reserved only for Tiger’s Eye winners.
The Unidentified Specimen is our purest mystery — a completely random gemstone sealed beneath the wax. Even we don’t know what you’ll uncover. Each candle becomes its own excavation, and the stone you reveal is the one the Grove chose for you.
------------
Designed for Fire, Not Warmers To reveal your hidden treasure, this candle must be burned! Candle warmers will melt the wax but will not lower the level, leaving your gem trapped beneath the surface. Light the wick to enjoy the crackle and excavate your prize.
The messaging on our candle warning labels was written with ASTM standards in mind. The National Candle Association recommends that all candle manufacturers utilize the ASTM F2058 Standard Specification for Candle Fire Safety Labeling.

GroveTop FAQ
What are your metal integrity tests?
We take quality seriously, so each piece undergoes a series of real-world tests. We perform a vinegar test to simulate sweat exposure, a saltwater test to check resistance to corrosion, and a chlorine test to ensure durability around pool water. These tests help ensure that your jewelry is made to last in everyday conditions.
Where do your stones originate?
We source our stones from a variety of trusted suppliers around the world, focusing on quality and unique character. Many of our stones come from regions renowned for their natural beauty, and we hand-select each one to ensure it complements our designs. Whether it’s amethyst, jasper, or quartz, every stone has its own story and is chosen to bring a little extra joy from the grove to you.
Where is your wood sourced from?
We carefully select our wood from a blend of meaningful places. Much of it is olive wood sourced from Bethlehem, carrying a rich heritage. We also work with skilled artisans here in the U.S. to incorporate locally sourced woods. Each piece is chosen to reflect both the natural beauty and the heartfelt craftsmanship that we stand for.
METAL CARE, MAINTENANCE, & SAFETY
To maintain the beauty and integrity of your purchase, we recommend treating it with care. Simple maintenance practices, such as routine gentle polishing (especially 925 silver) and proper storage, can effectively preserve the longevity of your favorite pieces.
We highly recommend you review our Jewelry Care & Safety blog article.
SHIPPING & RETURNS
We strive to process and ship all orders in a timely manner, working diligently to ensure that your items are on their way to you as soon as possible. Need to return something? Just let us know.
What size are your Celtic pendants?
Each of our signature Celtic pendants is crafted to a comfortable, medium-scale size that’s ideal for everyday wear. The standard Celtic Cross design measures approximately 50mm (1.97 inches) tall and 30mm (1.18 inches) wide — about the size of a U.S. half dollar or two stacked quarters side by side.
This balanced scale allows the pieces to be large enough to showcase intricate knotwork, yet subtle enough to wear daily on a chain or keychain.
What are the chain styles?
You can view our blog entry on the various chain styles and determine which one may be most suitable for your piece.
