Spirit Flute Minimalist 'A' Alder Wood
Our Spirit Flute 440 Hz Traditional Flute in the key of A minor is handcrafted from Alder wood, a beautiful tonewood prized for its balanced resonance, warm character, and clear projection. Alder gives this flute a deep, full-bodied voice with smooth, rich lows and bright, expressive highs that sing effortlessly.
This model also features a Walnut fixed plate, carefully fitted to enhance both comfort and tonal precision. The contrasting dark Walnut not only adds a striking visual accent but also contributes to a crisp, focused response, creating a refined playing experience that appeals to both beginners and seasoned flute players.
The short, streamlined design makes the Spirit Flute easy to take anywhere—perfect for travel, outdoor play, or quiet moments of reflection. Its compact mouthpiece reduces moisture buildup and provides excellent back-pressure, allowing for clear, resonant notes throughout the higher register.
Each High Spirits Flute is hand-finished with non-toxic oils, which protect the wood and enrich its natural tone, resulting in a warm, resonant, and full voice. The flute measures approximately 14 inches (35.6 cm) in length.
Because of its size, tone, and ease of play, the Spirit Flute A Minor (Alder with Walnut Mouthplate) is highly recommended for first-time players and for anyone who values portability without compromising sound quality.
This six-hole flute includes a leather hole cover for the third hole from the top. Using the cover makes it easier for beginners to play right away, and it can easily be untied and removed, giving the player the option of performing as either a five-hole or six-hole flute.

1. Prepare — Trim the wick to 5mm before each burn. Remove all packaging and place on a heat-safe surface away from drafts.
2. First burn — Allow the wax to melt all the way to the edges on your first use (approx. 2 hours). This prevents tunnelling and ensures an even burn for the life of the candle.
3. Enjoy — Never burn for more than 4 hours at a time. Keep away from children, pets, and flammable materials. Never leave a burning candle unattended.
4. Care — Once finished, clean the vessel with warm soapy water and repurpose as a storage jar, planter, or glassware.
We started Apothecary because we believed your home deserved better than synthetic fragrance and mass-produced wax. Most candles on the market are made with paraffin — a petroleum by-product — and loaded with artificial fragrance that can trigger headaches, allergies, and that familiar "chemical" smell.
We wanted something different: a candle that fills a room slowly, honestly, with scent that feels like it belongs there. That's why every Amber Candle is hand-poured in small batches using a coconut-soy blend, scented with a proprietary amber and resin accord that took over a year to develop.
Burn time matters too. We designed the Amber Candle to reach a full melt pool within the first two hours, which means no tunnelling, no wasted wax, and a consistent scent throw every time you light it.
This candle isn't just a product. It's what we'd want in our own homes.

How long does the Amber Candle burn?
Approximately 50 hours with proper care — trimming the wick to 5mm before each burn and not exceeding 4-hour burn sessions.
What wax is used?
A coconut-soy blend. We chose this combination for its clean burn, excellent scent throw, and renewable sourcing. No paraffin, no petroleum.
Is it safe to burn around pets?
Our fragrance is free from known pet-toxic ingredients, but we always recommend burning in a well-ventilated space. Keep candles physically out of reach of all animals at all times.
