Alabaster Vesta Candle by Trudon

Trudon unveils a new exclusive addition to The Alabasters range, Vesta embodies a luminous halo and clarity come from afar: discovered in 1807, the Vesta asteroid also hints at the name of a Roman deity. In ancient mythology, Vesta's presence is symbolized by a holy fire, an eternal flame.

The delicate alabaster not only replaces the traditional green-glass but creates a sculptural object complete with a matching top.

Praised since Antiquity by Greeks, egyptians and Romans, alabaster is a soft stone: its milky aspect ideally filters light. Countless artefacts, objects and sculptures carved out of alabaster are held in museums around the globe. All symbolize elegance, finesse and immaculate whiteness. In ancient Greece, alabaster also coined the name of a vase without handles that contained perfume (alabastros).

Sculpted in Spain out of a single block, the new containers and matching tops are one-of-a-kind: the alabaster's veins that run on the surface are unique by essence. Minimal and aesthetic, a gold metallic label further recalls the manufacture's history.

Glorified by the candle's flame, the translucent alabaster welcomes a halo of light: with its white mineral tops, The Alabaster range of candles transforms into a unique interior accessory.

Fragrance:

A fruity chypre accord, the perfume builds on a floral facet with notes of rose, freesia and jasmine further softened by balmy, musky base notes. Greener notes of moss and mandarin give the perfume a luminous and crystallin balance. Fresh and floral, the scent mirrors the transparency of the alabaster container that lights up, composing a warm halo: Vesta suggests a luminous presence.
