At Mecoco, we believe in changing perceptions of disability by showing what's possible. That's why we've rebranded our A Drop in the Ocean candle to feature the unique artwork of Matthew Goode.
Matthew was an extraordinary young man who worked with Art Tutors at Sense Scotland to create vibrant, large-scale canvases.
His works "Fishing Nets" and "Sea and Shells" now grace the labels of our A Drop in the Ocean rocksalt and driftwood scented candles. The original pieces included beach debris and shells collected by Matthew on visits to the seaside, which he loved.
Matthew died just after Christmas in 2023, aged only 26. With every candle sold, we share his story and a postcard featuring his artwork, helping to keep his memory alive.
This is more than just a candle - it's Matthew's legacy.
A Drop in the Ocean
A mesmerising floral marine scent where refreshing notes of seaweed and green algae lie in cool rock pools livened by a fresh coastal breeze and enhanced by touches of cyclamen and water lily.
Available as both a large tin and small tin candle, it will fill the room with scent.
This popular scent is also available as wax melts and reed diffuser.
