About The House of Eden

The House of Eden trades from a unit in Durham Market Hall and describes itself as "the little shop of pretty things". Founded in 2020, it centres on home fragrance, with soy candles, wax melts, reed diffusers, incense and room sprays making up much of the range, alongside self-care items such as bath salts and essential oils.

The shop also carries gifts and accessories including tote bags, notebooks, mugs and upcycled kimonos, and offers a bespoke personalisation service with same-day options available. It is open Monday to Saturday, and orders can also be placed through its website.
