The conceptual Sfumato Candle has been designed by Kegan McDaniel as a line of products for the home that highlight a tranquil aroma along with decorative accents. The candle itself is encapsulated inside a cast concrete container that gives it both figurative and literal heft within a space. This architecturally inspired container design could be seamlessly incorporated into a space and gets its name from a book about Leonardo Da Vinci that McDaniel read.
The conceptual Sfumato Candle is imagined in three scent options including Sicilian Sage, Amalfi Citrus and Tuscan Fields, which feature red, yellow and green wax shades, respectively. The product speaks to the permanent space that the scented candle holds in many households as consumers continue to spend more time making their living space feel inviting.
