Cire Trudon Bust L'Esclave Stone
Cire Trudon Bust L'Esclave Stone
Created by Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux (1827-1875) around 1870, the bust "Pourquoi naître esclave" (Why be born a Slave) was commissioned by the City of Paris to represent one of the cardinal points. Brought to life in collaboration with the Plaster Cast Workshop of the Rmn- Grand Palais, this 35cm creation stands as a timeless tribute to human labour. Carpeaux's desire for faithful representations of human form led him to depict his African slave in a captured, yet rebellious stance. It's said the female model may have also been present in Charles Cordier's 1861 "Capresse des colonies."

Glassblowing is an ancient technique that is used to shap each of our signature Kandl blue vessels. Our hand-poured candles and carefully selected wicks are exquisite masterpieces of design and luxury. All of our signature Kandl blue vessel candles are assembled locally in Toronto, Canada in small batches and each carry its own unique characteristic - no two handblown glass vessels are exactly the same.
