skyscraper candle

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.

These beeswax skyscraper candles are infused with plant pigments and are like big rectangular blocks in size (25x6.5x4.5 cm). Each one is made with over 700g of wax. Each burns for approximately 32 hours. 

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.

For the duos, the first color mentioned is the dominant one.

Please practice fire safety, and never leave a burning candle unattended. For best results, burn over a plate or ceramic candle dish to avoid spilling hot wax on your furniture.
