Trudon Ex Voto - Black
$96
Cire Trudon’s Ex Voto is a collectible wax sculpture inspired by an ex-voto found during archaeological excavations in Syria in the 1850s, likely an offering to a Syrian deity. The dedication engraved around its wrist, “Prokla en ex-voto,” means “For herself or her house, to dedicate”; the original work is exhibited at the Louvre. Created as part of Cire Trudon’s collaboration with the Réunion des Musées Nationaux, this reproduction is made from 100% vegetable wax and adorned with a wick in tribute to the candle’s primary function, though the wax sculpture is intended to be collected rather than consumed. Made in France.
Display away from heat and direct sunlight; dust gently. Intended to be collected rather than burned.

Our Stylist's Notes
"I’d display this sculptural ex-voto on a console or bookshelf as a conversation-starting collectible. Its dark, hand-shaped form brings an artful, archival accent to a considered interior."
