For thousands of years, people have brought their boughs indoors at midwinter as a promise that the light would return, and burned their needles and resins to purify and protect the home. FOR-REST is a candle for slowing down: a forest to retreat into, and an invitation, as its name says, to rest. Five conifers, from the forests of Europe to the Himalayas to the old-growth hemlock groves of New York, come together to ground the body, clear the space, and bring the hush of the winter woods indoors.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Botanicals + Traditional Uses\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScotch Pine\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e(\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003ePinus sylvestris\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cem\u003e)\u003c\/em\u003e: Grows across Europe and northern Asia.
