DESCRIPTION
Wax candles have been used as an organic symbol in any festive event for a long time. They fit perfectly for a romantic evening, a family dinner or on Christmas Eve. This small source of light has an incredible way of changing everything around: a familiar interior turns into a warm and cozy one and faces of our relatives and beloved look mysterious and romantic.
A lighted candle in a village house pushes any imagination. Even to a very modest one. We start to remember fairytales that were read to us before bed, magical stories overheard at a bonfire. Our fantasy paints incredible stories in which reality neighbors fiction, where absolute freedom of creation takes over.
