This one is cast from an 18th century wooden skull, hand-carved by French monastic artisans and kept in a monastery, where it reminded its keepers of the veil between life and the hereafter. The monks sculpted it to say that all things pass: beauty, power, sorrow, self.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe candle is a faithful reproduction of the carving, down to the fine bone contours, the age-worn fissures and the serene grimace. It is unscented, which suits it. Lit, it burns slowly and throws long shadows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eIt is designed to drip, so give it a heat-resistant surface and a little care: trim the wick before each burn and keep burns under four hours. Limited edition, 15cm x 13cm.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Heretic Parfum","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67997086744678,"sku":null,"price":109.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0553\/0242\/2630\/files\/HereticMementoMoriCandle.jpg?v=1794290803","url":"https:\/\/iris-beauty.co.nz\/products\/memento-mori-candle","provider":"Iris Store + Studio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
