Fornasetti Al Buio Peccato Originale Candle

A giant in the world of Italian mid-century design, Pietro Fornasetti saw every object as as canvas. Inspired by both classic Italian art and the burgeoning Surrealist movement, the visionary artist and designer created a prolific collection of imaginative, otherworldly illustrations throughout his lifetime, which he used to decorate his never-ending line of furniture and home accessories — art for everyday use, as he called it. Our Fornasetti Al Buio Peccato Originale Candle is housed in a housed in a handmade porcelain jar in the shape of a bright red apple, which rests on an attached plate emblazoned with an open hand. Inside this keepsake vessel, you’ll find a natural vegetable wax candle, infused with the brand’s iconic Frutto Proibito scent — an enticing fragrance from master perfumer Olivier Polge that blends Mediterranean citrus with notes of sweet jasmine, tuberose and rosewood for a seductive and decidedly Italian feel. A luxurious piece of true Italian heritage, it’s the perfect way to bring a bit of la dolce vita to any room of the house — or an indulgent gift to your favorite Italophile.
