We discover art and piece of mind when we break from standard conventions of our time. This elegant but profound creation by Christoph Van Bommel is not enabling world piece, but it steps far outside the box of the norm.
The multiple wick candle is based on models of molecular structures. The wick spreads throughout the rectangular candle wish initially makes for a cool site.
You can start the flame anywhere and watch as it makes its way through the wax and along the twisted lines of the wick, igniting multiple flames as it proceeds (up to 5).
Candles used to be relaxing because of the mood they implied, now they can be relaxing to look at.
