Please note: because reclaimed wax is inherently variable, each candle may differ slightly from the image shown in colour and natural marbling. These subtle variations are part of the beauty of the process and make every piece unique.
Prefer a more uniform finish? Select white wax (paraffin) from the menu. For a pure, perfect white, choose coconut wax.
The Dome, Cast in Wax
A limited-edition architectural candle inspired by Brunelleschi’s Dome, one of Florence’s most iconic landmarks. Handmade in Tuscany and hand-poured in Florence, it transforms the city’s most celebrated Renaissance silhouette into a sculptural object for interiors.
Made by the social workshop Il Candelaio using reclaimed church wax from Florence, each candle is a contemporary design piece shaped by craftsmanship, local production, and social value. Its strong architectural presence and refined proportions make it ideal as a decorative candle, a distinctive souvenir from Florence, or a meaningful gift for lovers of design, architecture, and Italy.

Why it is unique
The Brunelleschi Dome Candle comes from an exclusive Lume mould, designed in Florence, developed in 3D in Carrara, and moulded in Sesto Fiorentino. Every step of the process remains in Tuscany, creating a product that is local, traceable, and entirely handmade.
Because it is made with reclaimed wax, each candle may show slight variations in tone and surface. These differences are part of its material character and make every piece one of a kind.
Wax options
Please note: because reclaimed wax is never exactly the same, each candle may vary slightly from the image shown in colour and natural marbling. These subtle differences are part of the beauty of the process and make every piece unique. Prefer a more uniform finish? Select white wax (paraffin) from the menu. Prefer a perfect white? Select coconut wax from the menu.
A Florence candle with architectural presence
More than a candle, this piece is a contemporary interpretation of Florence’s most iconic dome. Its balanced proportions and sculptural form make it perfect for consoles, tables, shelves, and curated interiors that bring together history, design, and material depth.
A symbol of Renaissance Florence, reimagined in wax, it offers a more thoughtful alternative to the usual souvenir — an object that carries architecture, craftsmanship, and memory into everyday space.
