"ANGEL" 3D PLUS SIZE CANDLE by C’TOAN
$25
Do you want to surround yourself with art that uplifts you, paying homage to the beauty of all bodies, not just the ones that society glorifies? Then this is the candle for you. Angel is the perfect nude art gift to set on your bedside table, mantel, or window sill.
Full belly, back rolls, hip dips, a wide figure and 4″ tall
Hand poured, using soy wax and fragrance oils and may have gold/silver leaf
The scent is light, not overwhelming the senses
3D candles like Angel are usually not burned, but rather used as home décor. If you would like to light the candle, put it on a fire safe dish as the wax will drip. The candle may not burn completely, however, remaining wax can be reused by transferring into a wax warmer and melted.
Angel is a handmade, hand poured candle. As such, imperfections and color differentiations are a natural occurrence. They simple add to the beauty of the art. Because of the type of candle this is, no burn time is predicted or guaranteed.
