49,00 €
This candle collection is inspired by proportions and geometry. Known as the tale of twelve, each flat surface is designed at a 30° angle to subtly make a step towards forming a circle.
Shaped by twelve sides.
A quiet reference to the months, the passing of time, and the way a relationship is built — not all at once, but moment by moment, season by season.
Housed in sandstone mineral, this candle feels earthy, gritty just like a sedimentary rock.
Each component is selected not for efficiency, but for balance — between performance, safety, and sensory comfort.
The vessels are hand-cast in mineral composite — a mixture of mineral powders and natural aggregates, mixed and poured by hand in our atelier. It has the weight and texture of natural stone, ages with time, and designed to outlast the fragrance it carries by decades.

Inspiration
This candle collection is inspired by proportions and geometry. Known as the tale of twelve, each flat surface is designed at a 30° angle to subtly make a step towards forming a circle.
Each facet catches light differently, just as each phase of a shared life holds its own texture: anticipation, patience, warmth, stillness.
Crafted as a cylindrical architectural form made using a mineral-based concrete, chosen for its raw elegance and permanence. Each piece is hand-cast, finished and refined, allowing subtle variations that make every object singular.
Housed in our architecturally inspired 12-faced jar, this candle embodies the essence of French craftsmanship — where balance, geometry, and emotion meet.
This object was conceived as a dialogue between form and scent.
Inspired by French architectural lines, it is designed to inhabit space with calm presence. The shape is intentional.
Its proportions echo architectural balance — stability, symmetry, and restraint.
Every line has a reason. Nothing is decorative without meaning.
Each piece is made by hand in small quantities.
The process is slow and precise.
From preparation to finishing, every step requires attention and patience.
