The snake has never been neutral. In ancient Greece, Asclepius carried a staff with a serpent coiled around it — the symbol of medicine still used today. In Norse mythology, Jörmungandr encircled the world. In Egyptian tradition, the uraeus cobra crowned the pharaoh. The snake is transformation, renewal, danger, wisdom — all at once, all in the same form. That tension is exactly what makes it such a compelling subject for a dinner candle.
The Snake Taper Candle is a sculptural dinner candle and one of our most dramatic gothic halloween candles and halloween candlesticks — with a snake coiled around the taper base, hand-finished at our Orlando studio in your choice of candle body color and snake finish. This is a table piece that draws attention before the food arrives and holds it through the meal.
