Indonesian Transcendental Cloud Pillar Candle | Ivory Pearl - Unscented

Clouds on every side, carved deep enough to cast their own shadows.

The Transcendental Cloud Pillar Candle in Ivory Pearl, unscented, comes from Indonesia and is contemporary. It is beeswax. Swirling cloud scrolls are a long-loved motif across East and Southeast Asian decorative arts, often read as signs of good fortune and the heavens. Here they cover the whole pillar in relief, curling bands and tight little spirals stacked from top to bottom with no plain surface left. The wax has a soft creamy tone and a slight pearly sheen. It is 20 inches high and 10 in diameter.

Lighting it will be a matter of conscience.
