The"Lights" of Arte Pura

Ok, I've saved this until I got all the info.....Candles.  Yes Candles!!!!! But what Candles!!!!!!!!!
Candles you design yourself??????? Absolutely....

Only one designer could come up with this... Daniela Dellavalle from Arte Pura.
By now, everyone who reads this blog knows we are nuts for these Italian Linens, but she has gone way outside the design box......
What other line is doing candles that compliment their linens that have a piece of the linen IN THEM???????

Daniela confided in me that it was a challenge for the candlemakers to realize her vision for these pieces of art....... No they are not in a glass cylinder.......YES you can burn them.... And they are huge.....The idea is this: When you burn them they will form a cylinder inside the center and later you can put an LED votive in it so it can light indefinitely.....Brilliant!

We already have Arte Pura owners who have ordered...... There are three sizes, two cylindrical and one cube..... The cylindrical are approx 14" and 10".  The Cubo Grande square is approx 8" square.  They come in 7 colors and in 8 laces..... They offer three subtle fragrances depending on the color.  the neutral colors are in a Linen fragrance, the cooler colors are in Lemongrass / Mint and the others are in Sandalwood/ Patchouli.

I have never seen anything like this.... I applaud Daniela for her vision and for taking the "candle "
 into a new category of decorative arts....

Colors : Blanc, Naturale,Beige, Polevere, Gesso, Incanto, and Fata.
That means... White, Milk White, Cream, Beige, Beige Mauve, Grey/Taupe, Seaglass,and Grey/Lilac.
Of course, they are available through Beadboard UpCountry especially for you. Email us for specifics...
Light up Your Fall..... Gratzie;)
