From her hilltop studio in Givat Alumim, a small community in the Shomron region of Israel, Tzipporah Bragg creates candles that reflect both her land and her values: intentionality, peace, and simple beauty. Sunflower Studio began as an act of quiet resistance to chaos – a way for Tzipporah to shape calm into something tangible, something that could be lit, held, and shared.

She pours each candle by hand in small batches, sourcing clean, sustainable waxes and carefully chosen fragrance oils. Her approach is rooted in balance – not just between scent and flame, but between tradition and creativity, stillness and expression. Every blend she creates is informed by her surroundings: hills dotted with wild herbs, sun warmed stone, and olive trees swaying in the desert wind.

Her studio is quiet, but her work speaks. Customers return not just for her scents, but for how they make a room feel – like somewhere you want to stay and spend your time. For Tzipporah, candle-making is not just craft. It’s a way to offer light – spiritually, emotionally, and literally – from the land of Israel to homes around the world.
