In the Dutch Golden Age still life paintings of the 1620s and 1630s — Pieter Claesz, Jan Davidsz de Heem, Willem Claesz Heda — the candle appears always in the same state: half-burned, tilted, with wax dripping down its sides onto the table beneath. The dripping candle was not incidental. It was a vanitas symbol — tempus fugit, time passing, life burning away. The dripped wax was evidence that the candle had been used, that light had been given, that something of value had been consumed. The most honest depiction of what a candle actually does.
The Hand Drip Pillar Candle inverts that logic. The drips are cast into the wax before the candle is ever lit — built into the form at the moment of pouring, not accumulated over time. At 17 cm tall and 8 cm in diameter, it arrives as if it has already burned well and been enjoyed. Hand-poured from 100% natural soy wax at our Orlando studio, in 8 scents.
Available scents: Ocean Breeze · French Vanilla · Nag Champa · Amber Musk · Mahogany Teakwood · Bohemian Rose · Lemon Lavender · Bergamot & White Tea · Unscented — all phthalate-free.
