The Busted Gentleman – Apollo Sculpture Candle 15x12cm

The Apollo candle takes its inspiration from the broken remains of the Greco-Roman world. The soft lustre of the smooth soy-wax surface is a surrogate for the marble skin of the god once embodying perpetual youth and beauty. Purposefully set askew, this striking piece elevates the appearance of any setting with sharp shadows cast over the bright white contours and fine features of his delicate face and hair.

Inspired by the idealised forms of classical antiquity, The Busted Gentleman candle series takes its inspiration from the weathered and sometimes broken remains of what has survived the intervening centuries, from that time and place to present.
