Hand-Casting and Small-Batch Production in Santa Barbara

Hand-Casting and Small-Batch Production in Santa Barbara

Mass manufacturing prioritizes speed and uniformity. Small-batch studio production prioritizes material integrity, formula accuracy, and deliberate design.

At the LEHMANN studio in Santa Barbara, California, fragrance formulas are developed and blended in-house. Each product line—from 6.5 oz reed diffusers to 4.3 kg colossal concrete vessels—is hand-poured in limited runs.

Working in small batches allows for exact temperature control during wax cooling and precise fragrance loading. This guarantees that every vessel delivers a clean, steady diffusion from first burn to last.
