Ex-Voto Decorative Candle

This wax ex-voto by Cire Trudon will make a playful addition to any shelf or display.

Part of a collaborative project between Cire Trudon and the Réunion des Musées Nationaux, this decorative candle has been sculpted from wax as an exact replica of an ex-voto found during archaeological excavations in Syria in the 1850s. It was most likely an offering to a Syrian deity, around the wrist the words “Prokla en ex-voto” are engraved, which means “For herself or her house, to dedicate”
