Scented David Bust Candle
Considered one of Michelangelo's great masterpieces, 'The David' is an exquisite example of his knowledge of anatomy - can be seen in David's musculature, his strength emphasised through the classical contrapposto stance, with weight shifting onto his right leg. A sense of naturalism is conveyed in the way the body stands determined, a confident glare on the young man's face.
Because David is a symbol of strength and youthful beauty, we could only call our male bust candle by his name.
The David candles are hand poured in London. We are only using Soy Wax and fragrance oils. We can also make custom orders based on your preferences. Please get in touch if you’d like to create your own coloured David candle.
Some of our candles have colour imperfections, but that's because we like them looking like stone sculptures.
The David candle dimensions are:
Height: 14.5 cm
Width: 9.8 cm
We love how the 'David' bust candle looks and most of the times we are just keeping it for decor on our coffee table, next to our jewellery dish or near to our favourite book. It's a great match for our 'Venus' female bust candles as well.
All candles are scented as well and they throw a subtle scent even without being burnt.
If you’d like to burn your David candle, please note that burn time is approx 3 h. You should always place the candle on a dish or a tray when burning it.
There is no warehouse. That is rather the point, and it does have consequences.
Every brand here packs and posts its own orders, in its own boxes, with tracked delivery. The brands you can see are the ones that ship to your country, so your parcel is usually making a fairly short journey: a potter in Bristol posting to Britain, a studio in California posting within America.
Which does mean that an order from three brands arrives as three parcels, posted by three different people, on three different days. Whether that is an inconvenience or a small extended birthday rather depends on your temperament. It also means three lots of postage, shown before you pay, because we would rather mention it here than at the till.
Roughly how long
UK Domestic: 2–5 business days
Coming from further afield: 7–14 days. Usually quicker, but let's not prmise and it will be a lovely surprise!
Estimates, not promises. Each brand sends its own tracking, so you will be kept extremely well
Need help? Just ask.Our small team is here.
Fourteen days from delivery to tell us you have changed your mind, and fourteen more to get it back to us. No reason required, and we will not make you give one.
You are allowed to open it and try it on. Handle it as you would in a shop, and we will not quibble. Handle it as you would a rental car and we may deduct something for the difference.
Return postage is yours to pay, because the brand at the other end is a workshop rather than a warehouse. Some cover it themselves, and if yours does you will not be charged. Whatever you paid us to send it out, we refund either way, and the money goes back the way it came within fourteen days of the parcel reaching the brand.
A few things cannot come back, and only these: anything made or personalised to your order, sealed beauty products once the seal is broken, and anything perishable.
If something arrives damaged, faulty or not as described, none of the above applies. It costs you nothing, and we sort it.
Just email mail@brixbailey.com — we'll guide you through it.
