HOT ! Fornasetti Nel Mentre Soli Candle

A giant in the world of Italian mid-century design, Pietro Fornasetti saw every object as as canvas. Inspired by both classic Italian art and the burgeoning Surrealist movement, the visionary artist and designer created a prolific collection of imaginative, otherworldly illustrations throughout his lifetime, which he used to decorate his never-ending line of furniture and home accessories — art for everyday use, as he called it. Our Fornasetti Nel Mentre Soli Candle is housed in a handmade porcelain jar adorned with anthropomorphic suns in a stark black-and-white palette with hand-applied gold leaf details — a theme that Fornasetti continuously revisited throughout his career. It’s topped with a shallow, tray-like lid, emblazoned with yet another variation on that curious celestial body. Inside this stunning keepsake vessel, you’ll find a natural vegetable wax candle infused with the brand’s iconic Immaginazione scent — an intoxicating fragrance from master perfumer Olivier Polge that blends Mediterranean herbs from Casa Fornasetti’s garden with notes of cedar and sandalwood for a woody, aromatic and decidedly Italian feel. A luxurious piece of true Italian heritage, it’s the perfect way to bring a bit of la dolce vita to any room of the house — or an indulgent gift to your favorite Italophile.
