The Individual Candles

The Candles of the Oculatum are born of the same discovery used to create the book of the same name and are made entirely by hand in accord with the intent and spirit of the original text. Based on Medieval apothecary formulae only the purest virgin wax and braided cotton wicking is used. Hand poured in groups of six each candle is finished and grosgrain ribbon dressed by hand. Each candle has a unique sensory signature created from a combination of six separate constituents and each candle contains a random phrase from The Oculatum 636 Book of Choices. We trust they will fully meet your satisfaction.
