Description
Terra Tabac is a scented candle in a glass jar, 9cm across and 10.7cm tall, and it arrives in its own printed box. Inside the brown glass sits 285g of soy and paraffin wax, poured around a single cotton wick, with a burn time of 50 hours. That makes it a candle to light evening after evening for a good while, rather than a small votive you finish in one sitting. The whole piece weighs 0.45KG. It is a compact jar, a little taller than it is wide, so it does not crowd a small surface.
At this size it fits where a larger candle would not: a bedside table, a bathroom shelf, the end of a bookcase or the corner of a desk. The deep brown glass sits comfortably beside wood, leather and stoneware, so it settles easily into a living room, a study or a bedroom with a natural, earthy palette. It also looks well grouped with other candles of different heights on a tray or a low table, where the single flame adds a small point of light. Because it comes boxed, it is ready to hand over as a housewarming, birthday or thank-you present with no extra wrapping needed.
The glass has a matt, frosted finish on the outside and stands on a translucent foot that lifts it just clear of the surface and catches the light. The wax inside is brown as well, so the candle reads as one even colour from rim to foot when it is unlit. For an easy finishing touch, stand it on a wooden board or a stack of books so the foot shows, and keep its box if you want to put it away between uses.
