Shaped like a flattened fir tree and dotted with clusters of red holly berries, this large candle by Cereria Introna turns a holiday motif into a piece of wax sculpture. Relief-carved branches give the flat silhouette real texture, so it reads as a full little tree even standing just a few inches deep.
Cereria Introna has been hand-pouring candles in Puglia since 1840, a craft now in its sixth generation and currently led by siblings Vincenzo and Rossella Introna. The workshop started with votive candles for the church and religious festivals before growing into the whimsical, realistic forms it is known for today, with each piece still shaped and finished by hand in natural paraffin wax with a cotton wick.
