About Calendula Flower Extract

Calendula has been treasured in traditional herbal practices for generations because of its vibrant golden flowers, gentle botanical character and enduring place within botanical wellness traditions.

At Crest, our Calendula Flower Extract is handcrafted using carefully selected Calendula officinalis flowers, extracted using a traditional alcohol-water method that helps preserve the plant's naturally occurring botanical constituents.

Every bottle is handcrafted in small batches with a focus on quality, simplicity and respect for traditional herbal knowledge.

Traditional Herbal Heritage

For centuries, calendula has been cultivated in cottage gardens, monastery gardens and traditional apothecaries throughout Europe. Its bright blossoms have long been incorporated into botanical preparations and everyday wellness rituals that celebrate the relationship between people and plants.

Its sunny appearance and gentle botanical nature have made calendula one of the world's most recognisable traditional herbs.

At Crest, we honour these longstanding traditions while encouraging informed and responsible use of botanical preparations as part of a balanced wellness lifestyle.
