Solis Rex Pillar Candle
SKU: 50045
This special edition pays tribute to Louis the 14th, also known as the "Sun King", defender of the arts and letters, and completes the Versailles collection: a Gold and Blue pillar candle with a mold by hand golden Louis XIV cameo as an ornament. Each pillar candle is milled, colored and decorated in Trudon's Normandy atelier.
Made in France.
Founded in 1643, on the threshold of the reign of Louis XIV, Cire Trudon is the oldest Candlemaker in the world still active today.
Throughout the 17th century, the manufacturer became the Royal Wax Manufacturer and official supplier in the French court, then to Napoléon Bonaparte. Cire Trudon received a Gold Medal during the 1889 Universal Exhibit as a reward for the outstanding quality of its candles and wax.
Trudon enlists well-known “noses” to create perfumes for the stories it wishes to tell. Each candle is still dripped and made by hand in its factory in Normandy, perpetuating a luxury manufacturing which helps perpetuates the skills of its founder, Claude Trudon.
