Can you put the family name on a housewarming candle?

Yes, on the gift tag, through a custom enquiry. We can also pour it in colours you choose. We do not engrave nameplates.

What is a good ready housewarming candle?

Urli Candles at Rs 699 for the entrance, or Diya Candles at Rs 449, six wax diyas for the new mandir.

Yes. The tag can say who it is from, and the gift chest builder lets you put 3 to 6 pieces in one chest with a message.

Is there cash on delivery?

No. Every order is prepaid by UPI, card, net banking or wallet, so the family pays nothing at the door.

What goes on the tag of a new-home candle

The most personal thing about a new home is its name: the family name on the door, the house name painted on the gate, the flat number they waited years for. Raajkosh can put that on the gift tag of a handmade soy wax candle, by enquiry on our custom orders page:

"The Malhotra family, Shubh Griha Pravesh"
"Sai Kripa, Plot 14"
"Flat 1102, finally"
Both names of a young couple and the month they got the keys

We also pour in colours you choose, so the candle can match the new curtains or the mandir cloth. We reply with what is possible, a timeline and a price. We do not engrave nameplates or print photos; for a brass or wooden nameplate, a nameplate maker is the right shop.

Ready pieces for the four corners of a new home

If the griha pravesh is this week, choose a shop piece and write the family name on the gift note. Shop orders dispatch in 24 to 48 hours.

Choosing colours for a home you have not seen yet

Often you are gifting before you have visited. A few safe rules:

Ask what colour the main wall is. People love to talk about the paint they chose.
Terracotta, gold and cream suit almost any Indian living room and any festival.
For a rented first flat, pastels and ivory travel well to the next home too.
For a mandir corner, red, gold or terracotta, the colours already on the pooja thali.

A gift from a whole group

Neighbours, a kitty group or an office team often give one housewarming gift together. A custom tag can say "From all of us at B-Block" or list everyone's first names. For a group of 6 to 10, two pieces in one box make the gift look planned; our gift chest builder lets you choose 3 to 6 pieces, a chest style, a ribbon and a message, and takes 10% off the pieces when you choose 4 or more.

Is a candle right for this house?

Usually, yes: a new home is the one place where the first lamp lit means something. But be practical. If the family has a toddler or an elderly parent with poor eyesight, the candle should be decor on a high shelf, not lit. If they wanted kitchen basics, our page on housewarming gifts people actually use ranks candles honestly against cookware and plants.

Getting it to the new address

New addresses trip couriers up. Use the full address with tower and flat number, and the family's phone number, not yours. We deliver across India, 2 to 7 days after dispatch, and never promise a date: order early and check the delivery estimate for their pincode on the product page. Payment is prepaid only (UPI, card, net banking or wallet); there is no cash on delivery. Shop orders can be returned on a request within 24 hours of delivery. Personalised pieces cannot be returned unless they arrive damaged or wrong, so spell the family name exactly as they do.

For the first lighting: a stable, heat-proof surface, away from fresh curtains and marigold garlands, never unattended, and keep each burn to 3 to 4 hours.
