Why This Tea & Bedtime Gift for a Friend Is Special
Frequently Asked Questions
What's a gentle gift to send someone who has just lost a loved one — is the Small Thoughtful Lavender Gift suitable?
Yes — it was put together as a quiet sympathy gift. A cup of lavender and chamomile tea and a lavender sleep balm offer a small moment of comfort, and the fridge magnets and bookmark are keepsakes they can hold on to. It's modest in size, so it doesn't feel overwhelming at a difficult time.
What makes the Small Thoughtful Lavender Gift different from other lavender gift sets?
Both lavender items in this small gift come from our family farm in Newstead, Waikato. The sleep balm uses lavender oil we steam-distil ourselves, and the tea is blended with 'Pacific Blue', the culinary English lavender we grow alongside it.
What other occasions suit this lavender sympathy gift?
Beyond sympathy, it's a lovely get-well gift, a thinking-of-you surprise for a friend going through a hard time, or a small thank-you for a teacher, carer or neighbour. It also makes a thoughtful Secret Santa or stocking filler.
Does this gift arrive ready to give?
Yes — it arrives gift-boxed, ready to send straight to the recipient: just enter their address as the shipping address. To include a personal message, add one of our greeting cards to your order and write your message in the Gift message or special instructions box in your cart — we'll handwrite it on the card. Receipts are emailed to you, so no price or invoice goes in the parcel.
How should the recipient use this lavender sympathy gift?
Brew the tea in the evening as a quiet moment to pause. Before bed, rub a little sleep balm onto the temples or pulse points to help them wind down. The magnets and bookmark are keepsakes for the fridge and their next book.
Does this lavender sympathy gift contain nuts, coconut, beeswax or milk?
The Lavender Sleep Balm contains beeswax and coconut oil. The tea contains chamomile, which some people with daisy-family allergies avoid. None of the items contain almond oil or milk. Full ingredient lists are on each product's own page.
Where does the lavender in this gift come from?
Both come from our family farm in Newstead, Waikato. The sleep balm is made with Super Lavandin (Lavandula × intermedia 'Super') essential oil that we grow and steam-distil ourselves, and the tea is blended with English lavender (Lavandula angustifolia 'Pacific Blue'), the culinary variety we grow alongside it.
How long does delivery take within New Zealand for this gift?
We send every order by tracked courier, with no signature needed. We aim to deliver within 3–5 working days in the North Island and 5–7 working days in the South Island and rural areas, and orders placed on a weekend or public holiday are sent the next business day.
Can I order this lavender sympathy gift from overseas for someone in New Zealand?
Yes. You can order the Small Thoughtful Lavender Gift from anywhere in the world and we'll deliver it to any address in New Zealand — just enter the recipient's NZ address at checkout. We only deliver within New Zealand, so it can't be sent to an address overseas.
