The piece
Some things can't be said with words.
Only with a gesture, two bodies finding each other, holding on.
L'Étreinte is a hand-sculpted candle, 24 cm tall. A couple, tenderly embraced, caught in a moment of stillness.
It burns slowly for up to 20 hours and as it melts, it fills the room with the scent of pure honey. Warm, deep, naturally sweet. The kind of scent that makes you stop what you're doing. That slows the air around you. Rich without being heavy. Ancient without being dusty. People always ask: what is that smell?
It is simply the beeswax, alive and burning, doing what it has always done.
But L'Étreinte is also something more. For centuries, candles have been lit to call something forward. To mark a moment, to set an intention.
If you light L'Étreinte with the intention of finding love, maintain the one you have,or just for yourself, it walks with you. It lights the way.

Shipping and returns
Why no two are alike
Cast, then finished by hand
Every Presence Object is cast from Cecile's moulds, then finished and stamped by hand in the Lisbon studio. The small differences are the proof.
