Good candles to burn?

[Linzie2]

Seeing how we will be moving off the grid (soon!) using solar power, I thought we'd use candles more in our home.  Just wondered about any input on good quality candles that also aren't pollutants in our home (something I've heard about candles)

Thanks!

Beeswax.  When burned with a lead free wick, they're the only candles that clean the air

We use local beeswax candles from either the Farmer's Market when the beekeeper has them, or from our co-op.  We also use unscented soy wax candles, with lead-free wicks.  I love the smell of beeswax candles the best, however, and I like the interesting shapes which they sometimes come in.

Thanks!  When the weather warms, I'll check the Farmer's Market....otherwise, I'll just search around online.  Any good resources?

I make my own.  I get the supplies from here  I've tried to source beeswax locally, but haven't had any luck yet, surprisingly.  You might be able to find some sources on ebay or maybe even craigslist.
