Discover Solis Rex Pillar Candle by Trudon.
This special edition pays tribute to Louis XIV, 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 handmade golden Louis XIV cameo ornament. Each pillar candle is milled, coloured and decorated in Trudon's Normandy atelier.
Louis XIV conceived the Versailles park as a departure from traditional courtly life, offering an invitation to relaxation and festivities. The initial celebrations, titled "The Pleasures of the Enchanted Isle," featured an exceptional comedy-ballet by Molière and Lully. Three days of celebration where even the castle, too small for all the guests, forced some to sleep in their carriage.
Please note this product is unscented.

Stunning
This azure and gold pillar candle from Trudon’s Versailles collection exceeded my expectations, as I bought it online, only going by the photos on this website. I think it is more gorgeous than photos portray, and I don’t mind at all that it is scentless. The candle has a heft to it, and a smooth polished feel. The gold band is more muted than the bright cameo of King Louis XIV, and the cameo itself impressive. Well done to whoever carefully extracts the wax cameos from the molds because the definition in Louis’ face is clear. Trudon has managed to create a decorative object (it would be a shame to actually burn it) which is both modern and classic, so personally I think it can be styled to fit in with a relaxed Aussie lifestyle or glammed up for a celebration. I’ve been having fun placing the two pillar candies I just received in different rooms, the deck at night and on various plates, stands etc. I hope that Trudon brings out more of these types of exquisite decorative objects for modern tastes.
