OCTAEVO Templo Candle - Ivory

I didn't expect the wax to be hand poured in Italy, but you can actually see the little imperfections that make each one different. It's sitting on my shelf as a sculpture now, and honestly I'm not sure I'll ever bring myself to burn it.

It arrived carefully wrapped, and the hand-poured wax has this lovely, subtle texture you can see up close. The relic-style sculpture feels sturdy enough to keep as a keepsake long after the candle burns down, which I already plan to do.

The hand-poured wax has this lovely uneven texture that makes it feel genuinely one-of-a-kind, not just another mold. It’s been sitting on my shelf for a week as a little relic, and I catch myself staring at it more than I’d admit.
