Artemis Bust Candle – Greek Statue Soy Wax Sculpture Candle
Description
Artemis was the goddess of the hunt, the moon, and the wilderness — the twin sister of Apollo and one of the most self-possessed figures in the Greek pantheon. Where other goddesses were defined by their relationships, Artemis was defined by her sovereignty. This sculpture captures that quality: composed, watchful, entirely her own.
The Artemis Bust Candle is one of our largest sculptural pieces — hand-poured from 100% natural soy wax in our Orlando studio, weighing 470 g and built to burn for 55–70 hours. The detail in the facial features and draped form is hand-finished individually. Lit, it glows. Unlit, it anchors a shelf.
Available scents: Ocean breeze · French Vanilla · Amber Musk · Mahogany Teakwood. Each fragrance is crafted from phthalate-free oils chosen to complement the character of the sculpture — choose at checkout.

FAQ
Our sculptural candles are handcrafted from 100% natural soy wax or a soy-beeswax blend, combined with cotton wicks for a clean burn. We use only non-toxic, phthalate-free fragrances or essential oils, ensuring both beauty and safety.
While sculptural candles make stunning décor, they are fully functional and safe to burn if placed on a heat-resistant surface. For the best experience, burn them in a candle-safe dish to catch melted wax and preserve their unique shape longer.
VOTIVE combines artistic design with eco-conscious production. Our candles are made from non-GMO soy wax, natural wicks, and clean scents, and are poured in small batches for quality. Every design is created to be both a statement piece and a safe, clean-burning candle.
Yes—our candles are made without paraffin, toxins, or harmful chemicals, making them safer for homes with pets and children. However, as with all candles, keep them out of reach and never leave them burning unattended.
We aim to reduce waste wherever possible by using recyclable boxes and biodegradable fillers. While some fragile items may still be wrapped in bubble wrap for protection, we encourage customers to reuse or recycle it responsibly.
🦺 SAFETY FIRST
- Do not leave lit candles unattended; extinguish them if you leave the room.
- Keep candles out of children's reach.
- Store in cool, dark places, away from sunlight.
