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.

The piano tapered candle is made using the traditional hand dipping method which has been applied as a form of candle making for thousands of years. The candles are made using white beeswax and over-dipped with indigo (plant) infused wax. Each candle is unique in shape and size. They are approximately 2.5-3cm wide and 25 cm tall, and they burn for 6-8 hours each. Trim the wick (to about 1 cm) if you would like the candle to burn slowly and do not leave the burning candle in a drafty spot where it can burn unevenly (and is also a hazard). Collect any leftover wax and reuse it to make playful candles or in other home-crafts.

Please practice fire safety, and do not let candles burn unattended.
