KNOW-HOW
KNOW-HOW
Our candles are the result of extensive research , collaboration with artists and development in order to guarantee you an exceptional product.
Convincing artists to participate in this special collection was a thorny issue, as rarity reigns supreme in the world of sculpture. Those who got involved, invested themselves fully.
We manufacture in Spain at a candle maker with ancestral know-how of more than 160 years. Despite modernization, our candles remain artisanal products made by hand. Only the experience of the way makes their realization possible, an extreme reflection of the gesture and intention of the artist.
Our wax is a predominantly mineral blend to guarantee the hardness property essential to the longevity of your candles.
Our packaging is eco-designed in France and PEFC certified, i.e. cultivated plantation wood, ecological, natural and recyclable. Our screen prints are made with water-based inks.

Through the organic form of the work Contorsion (Contortion - Ed.), Arno Sebban seeks a balance between carnal sensuality and dynamic nervousness embodied by the twisting of the body. The aesthetic feeling is the essence of our life drive. Part of a series called enVIE (inLIFE - Ed.), in reference to Freud, the work celebrates the victory of Eros and the desire for life over the tragic Thanatos.

The work of Arno Sebban
A sculpture is a body speaking to another. Arno Sebban's creations are therefore about the other. He addresses the viewer's sensitive capacity and the elaboration of his emotions through the physical interaction between the object and the person. Trained at ENSCI, Arno Sebban is an artist-designer and researcher free from any constraints, who questions the functions of the object and especially that of the artistic object. He has exhibited his works throughout the world for over twenty years.
