Pillar Candle
SKU: 48910
Trudon pays homage to Madame de Pompadour through a collection of Cameo Pillar Candles. Defender of the arts and literature, and Louis the 15th favorite, Madame de Pompadour reinvestigated cameos as ornamental pieces. 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.
