The Cire Trudon Ex-Voto Bust Candle is a non-scented wax sculpture inspired by an ex-voto discovered during archaeological excavations in Syria in the 1850s, likely an offering to a Syrian deity. Its wrist bears the dedication “Prokla en ex-voto,” meaning “For herself or her house, to dedicate”; the original work is exhibited at the Louvre. Created in collaboration with the Réunion des Musées Nationaux, this approximately 5.11-inch-tall reproduction features a wick and is intended to be collected rather than consumed.

Our Stylist's Notes
"I’d display this sculptural candle on a bookshelf, mantel, or console where its distinctive hand form can stand on its own. I’d keep it unlit as a collectible accent, in keeping with its intended display function."
