twisted dipped 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 double wick twisted beeswax candle, hand-dipped in the Copito workshop are each one unique. These candles generally do not fit inside traditional candle holders, we recommend putting them in a vessel filled with sand or small stones. They are approximately 2 to 3 cm wide and 25 cm tall. Their burn time is approximately 4-6 hours each. Trim the wicks (to about 0.7cm) 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 never leave a burning candle unattended.
