Astier de Villatte's Candle Glass Kingston evokes a melodic voyage into the fascinating world of Kingston, the legendary birthplace of Rastafarianism and Reggae. From the alleys of Trench Town, the astonishing district features walls adorned with magnificent colored frescoes and messages of peace, we stop at Tuff Gong Studios, a haven for Reggae stars. Everywhere in the Jamaican capital hovers an enchanting and delicious scent of woody, earthy vetiver with a touch of patchouli and fresh green grapefruit.
This wax formulation, plant-based with a touch of beeswax, is unique. Free from paraffin or petrochemical derivatives, and therefore free from soot, its exceptionally supple and tender texture is a guarantee of its purity.
- Made in France
- Plant-Based Wax, Blown Glass (tumbler), & Cotton (wick)
- At no time should any burning candle be left unattended. Keep lit candles out of reach of children and pets. Keep the wick trimmed to 5 or 6 mm; this length should be maintained throughout the burning process. Ensure that the wick maintains its central position. Extinguish any candle that smokes excessively (check instructions before relighting). Do not burn a candle on a flammable or fragile surface. Do not let a candle burn for more than three consecutive hours.

Founders Benoît Astier de Villatte and Ivan Pericoli have been making unique lifestyle pieces in Paris for fifteen years. Their signature ceramics, candles, and glassware are all handmade in an antique Bastille workshop that originally housed Napolean's silversmith. Best known for their 18th- and 19th-century inspired black terra-cotta pottery, Astier de Villatte's team hand makes each piece in a traditional style that has been passed down through generations.
