Know before you buy
The five-wick configuration is essential for a candle of this size. It ensures the wax melts evenly across the entire surface, preventing tunneling and allowing the fragrance to disperse effectively throughout large rooms.
This candle features a bright, Mediterranean-inspired citrus profile. You will primarily notice notes of blood orange and mandarin, balanced by an herbal, earthy undertone of thyme.
With a height of 24 cm and a weight of over 5 kg, this piece is designed as a focal point. It works best on a sturdy coffee table, a console, or a fireplace mantel where its artisanal glass and flame reflection can be fully appreciated.
Yes, the artisanal glass vessel is a high-quality decorative object. Once the wax is fully consumed, it can be cleaned and repurposed as a large vase, a planter, or a statement storage piece.
To ensure a clean, smoke-free burn, always trim all five wicks to about a quarter-inch before each use. This prevents the flames from becoming too large and helps the candle burn for its intended duration.
