Danse Macabre Candle draws from medieval memento mori iconography, reimagined in a sculptural puzzle form. It is hand-assembled from individual paraffin cubes that feature public domain illustrations sourced from authentic medieval Dance of Death paintings or Public Domain photography. This candle merges art history with functional design—each segment burns independently, allowing you to experience the piece as both installation and light source. The geometric composition references the haunting symmetry of 15th-century Dance of Death paintings, transforming a darkly philosophical theme into contemporary home décor. N.B. Made to order.
