Banana Peeled Candle

Description

Add a whimsical touch to your home decor with the Banana Candle. Rendered in paraffin wax to resemble a half-unpeeled banana, this design is a cheeky twist on the traditional art of candle carving, where layers of wax are built by dipping the candle in hot wax and then carving and peeling the layers while they’re warm. Each Banana Candle is hand-carved and peeled-just like a real banana!-and has a 16-hour burn time. The Banana Candle is yellow and white and measures 6.25h x 3.75″diam. This candle should be used on a heat-resistant surface as it will drip while burning. Examples of faux food sculptures, such as Claes Oldenburg’s False Food Selection (c. 1966) are featured in MoMA’s collection.
