About Maison Luna | Handcrafted Candles & Our Story

Our Story:

The name Maison Luna evokes images of moonlit nights and celestial wonder, but its story begins in the heart of Vietnam. As a child, I was captivated by the magic of Tết Trung Thu, the Mid-Autumn Festival, a time when families gather under the full moon's glow. Imagine bustling streets bathed in the light of countless lanterns – shaped like carp leaping dragon gates, mythical creatures, and radiant moons – carried by joyful children. These lanterns, far more than mere decorations, are symbols of prosperity, abundance, and the harmonious connection between heaven and earth. The air is filled with the joyful sounds of lion dances and drum beats, celebrating the harvest and the blessings of the moon.

Based in Northern Virginia, Maison Luna is a bridge between East and West, honoring this vibrant heritage. During Tết Trung Thu, candles and lanterns guide the legendary Moon Lady, Chị Hằng, as she descends to Earth, bringing blessings of joy, especially to children. Our handcrafted candles are more than just light; they are vessels of cultural memory, echoing those moonlit nights and the enduring power of Vietnamese tradition.
