Proudly Presenting the Limited Edition Jamb Candle in collaboration with Moro Dabron
The Limited Edition Jamb Candle is an exciting collaboration with the masters of scent, Austin Moro and Eliza Dabron.
One of the features in our third Jamb Journal focuses on a very exciting collaboration that Jamb undertook with the masters of scent and enduring design; Moro Dabron, together we created the Jamb Candle.
It was a hugely exciting journey for us, and we spent a year designing the bronze vessel exterior,reflecting on the inspiration we had gathered from past visits to Europe’s finest museums, such as Berlin’s Neueu’s museum, and the Archaeological museum located in our beloved Corfu.
The final design however, was ultimately inspired by the hub of an ancient Egyptian chariot, found in the British Museum, after spending many afternoons there.
The vessel is reminiscent of artefacts procured by British Aristocrats during the Grand Tour era of the early 19th Century, which as Aimee Farrell described in The New York Times Magazine, “evokes the feeling of an exhumed treasure, a memento of the ancient world and exotic Grand Tours.”
The limited edition candles are created through many hand-crafted stages, that perfect each individual piece, so ultimately not one candle is ‘exactly' the same. Each vessel therefore is richly textured and unique, evoking a long lost ancient artefact, laid still on the bottom of the sea bed for centuries.
