Gothic Butterfly Pillar Candle – Skull Soy Wax Candle

This gothic butterfly pillar candle features an oversized raised butterfly whose body is formed by three sculpted skulls. Hand-poured in soy wax and finished by hand, it is a dramatic statement piece for dark academia, Victorian gothic, witchy and alternative interiors.

Fine wing lines, ornamental scrollwork, beaded details and fleur-de-lis-inspired accents give the surface the look of an antique gothic ornament translated into wax. The contrast between delicate butterfly wings and macabre skulls makes this skull butterfly candle an unusual find for collectors of the moody and the curious.

At 4.72 inches tall and 2.75 inches in diameter, it is substantial enough to stand on its own on a bookshelf, mantel, coffee table, altar or console. Pair it with antique books, dark florals, vintage brass or black candleholders for a gothic home decor look that works well beyond Halloween.

Choose your finish and scent at checkout: four dark colors, an optional gold, silver or copper hand-painted finish (or leave it unpainted), and scents from unscented to Palo Santo Patchouli and Sandalwood Rose. Available in 4 colors: Black, Oxblood, Dark Purple, and Dark Green.

A distinctive gift for witchy friends, dark academia lovers and candle collectors. Each candle is handmade, so small variations in texture and color are part of its character. The listed price is for one candle.
