Now nestled in between the canyons and the shores of the Pacific Ocean in sunny, southern California, AVM casa was originally founded in New York to provide quality, handmade soy candles to those looking to enliven their space with the ambient glow of candle light while being mindful of the environment and their budgets. Our purveyor, Andrea, a native Brazilian and long time New York resident, became enamored with candle making and natural products while producing small runs for family and friends. She couldn’t resist the allure and joy the process brought her and thus, AVM casa was born. Bringing over 20 years of operational experience in the luxury retail fashion industry, she has molded AVM casa utilizing the same care and attention the large design houses show in producing the most luxurious and high quality product for their customers. AVM casa uses pure fragrance and essential oils in our candles and a quality 100% soy wax that melts smoothly for hours of scented heaven. Our wicks are self-trimming and 100% cotton, free of lead and paper cores. As an expansion of the brand, we have also added new products to our line, keeping the original handmade and natural concept in mind. We now offer cold process soap bars, liquid all-over wash, lotion bars, lip balm and scrub, bath salts and fragrance diffusers, wIth more to come in the future as we grow.
