ACQUA DI PARMA

+DESCRIPTION

An original two-in-one design candle in the form of Acqua di Parma’s iconic Art Deco fragrance bottle diffusing the scent of Buongiorno.

Drawing inspiration from the classic elegance of a hat, as 'Chapeau!' alludes, the object is an unexpected twist on home fragrance.

Concealed within the Art Deco sculptural form are two candles. The glazed stoneware cap holds a 330-gram single-wick candle, in yellow. The ceramic base contains a second, larger 1600-gram four-wick yellow candle, designed to provide even illumination. The combination of different textures and finishes highlights the skill involved and adds visual and tactile appeal.

The base starts as unglazed ceramic, shaped, oven-set, and sanded for 30 minutes to achieve a smooth, matte surface. In contrast, the lid is glazed and fired twice for a glossy finish.

Each candle features a hand-embossed plaque inspired by Acqua di Parma's label, merging modern production with artisanal craftsmanship.

Buongiorno brings a sensuous yet fresh awakening to your day. As the first rays of the morning light filter through the window, the accompanying breeze brings hints of green aromas reminiscent of the splendid Italian countryside. The scents of freshly cut grass and sun-dried linen bring an infusion of freshness and simplicity at the same time. Natural wood tones are softened by moss, lending warmth, roundness, and comfort to the fragrance.

Do not burn each candle for more than 1,5 hours at a time. This will prevent the flame from becoming too high, which creates smoke and could stain the sides of the jars.
Use an Acqua di Parma snuffer to extinguish the flame.
Allow the candle to solidify before relighting it.
Restraighten the wick in the wax after each use for consistent consumption of the wax.
Regularly cut the wick with an Acqua di Parma wick trimmer (ideal length 5 mm for 330g candle and 10mm for 1600g candle) so that the wick does not stick to the wax and prevents the candle from emitting smoke.
Keep the wax pool clear of matches and debris.
Do not use the candle if the remaining wax level in the vase is less than 5 mm.
Do not leave the burning candle unattended. Keep away from children, curtains, and pets.
Do not move a burning candle or when the wax is still hot. Wait for the wax to solidify.
Ensure that the wax of both candles is fully solidified before placing the candle-cap back on the candle-base.
Do not place the candle on heat-sensitive surfaces, near flammable materials, an open window, or other candles.
