MARIE ANTOINETTE IN A NEW LIGH
History can be fragile… and yet enduring. The same holds true for this bust of Marie Antoinette of Austria, attributed to one of the Brachard brothers and preserved as an idealised vision of one of the most fascinating and controversial women in French history. With her head gently turned, her shoulders delicately draped, and her crown adorned with fleur-de-lis and a string of pearls, this candle evokes the entire imagination of the Rococo era — something you can experience in the present whenever your thoughts turn to the past.
USEFUL ADVICE
Busts should not be placed in direct sunlight, near a heat source or directly onto the surface where it stands.

RECOMMANDATION
Made using traditional methods, each bust is hand-crafted in small series at the Trudon Ateliers in Normandy. Depending on the series and the passage of time, the color of each bust may differ slightly, making each piece all the more unique. All details and finishes are done with great care, for each bust conveys and personifies History's greatness. All Trudon busts are adorned with a wick that pays tribute to the primary function of the candle. That said, the brand does not recommend burning the busts, as the wick is merely decorative and does not function as it would in a regular candle.
