Sculpted candles

Far from the white candle of the 19th century which lit castles and houses, the candle is nowadays a real object of contemplation which one dares to light only on rare occasions.

Brands and designers – HAY, Manomio, Cai Cai, Broste Copenhagen… – have recently had the madness of candles sculpted and carved with dexterity to the millimetre. The result? Tables, chests of drawers, candleholders, candlelit dinners are sublimated by wax sculptures that do without containers. Resolutely poetic curiosity candles.
