These innovative cat candles by designer Thorunn Arnadottir cleverly melt away to leave behind a miniature feline skeleton. These candles would be perfect for home owners looking to add an avant-garde design element to their decor.
While these macabre melting cat candles might seem a little gruesome to have in your home, they feature an extremely clever design. The candle starts off either as a dark gray or rosy pink modular sitting kitten. After the candle has been lit the wax begins to burn and melt away to reveal a metallic cat skeleton lurking underneath the wax. The wick travels into the metallic skeleton's belly that light's up each bone leaving you with a devil-like cat skeleton candle holder.
