Description
A candle that opens like a flower and a bowl that stays long after the flame. The Petal Bowl Candle is a handmade ceramic bowl candle with a scalloped, petal-shaped rim and a speckled cream glaze. It's one of a kind, made to be lit this winter and kept for years.
Made by hand in Quebec
Each bowl is shaped one at a time by Quebec ceramist Diane Brouillette, who has been working with clay since 1975 and whose work has been shown in Canada, Europe, and China. Because every piece is made by hand, the shape, colour, and texture vary slightly from bowl to bowl, so the one you receive is truly unique.
The Scent
Scent: First Snow
Fresh mountain air in winter. Bergamot and grapefruit open with a crisp, bright note. Bamboo leaves, wildflowers, and primrose add a touch of green. Forest fern and soft musk finish the scent with a calm warmth.
Notes:
Top: bergamot, grapefruit
Middle: bamboo leaves, wildflower, primrose
Base: forest fern, musk
Qualities: Crisp, fresh, wintery.
A holiday gift that lasts
It's a gift for the host who has everything, the friend who lights a candle every evening, or anyone on your list who loves handmade things. Two cotton wicks give an even burn of about 80 to 90 hours, which lasts well through the holidays and beyond.
A bowl with a second life
When the candle is finished, let the leftover wax harden, pop it out, and wash the bowl. It becomes a bowl for your morning coffee or cereal, a dish on the nightstand, or a home for your rings and earrings.
