beeswax candle holder

Copito is a project by Clara Infante, a natural dyer and multidisciplinary maker and artist based near Barcelona, Spain. Her explorations with plant and earth pigments are often manifested through her sculptural wax creations.

This pure beeswax candle holder by Copito is poured by hand in the Garraf region just south of Barcelona, Spain. Beeswax candle holders are made from cera alba and plant pigments. The centers are colored with either madder root or indigo pigments, they are poured by hand so each holder will have a unique pattern. They hold a 2 cm diameter candle, the candle pictured here is not included.
