    Bring the essence of Venice to your home with this Venetiae scented candle from Locherber. A fresh and aquatic fragrance, this scented candle has been topped with a stunning briccole wood lid salvaged from the Venetian lagoon when the shipping lane poles need replacing. A unique finishing touch, each lid is one of a kind and features the tunnels created by shipworm. A refined addition to any home, this candle is ideal for placing in an entrance hall or living room to provide a welcoming, fresh aroma.

    The fragrance is inspired by Venice and its famous “Briccole”.

    The “Briccole” are oak wood poles (sometimes of larch) that in the lagoon canals of Venice delimit the navigable areas. About every twenty years the “Briccole” must be replaced because they are deteriorated by saltiness and above all by the erosion of a marine mollusc (the Teredeo navalis) which feeds on wood.

    Locherber Milano after purchasing the “Briccole” exhausted by the City of Venice, which certifies the origin with a certificate of origin, retrieves them into unique pieces thanks to the experience of their local craftsmen who use methods that are passed down generation to generation .

    The caps are modeled one by one on the lathe and finished by hand, becoming real jewels of high craftsmanship. The fragrance is as fresh as a sea breeze, as sensual as the oriental spices that the merchants of the Serenissima brought to Europe.

    Venetiae tells the magic of a city unique in the world and of fascinating history. A fragrance that opens with iodine and citrus notes of bergamot and lemon, evolves into floral (lavender) and Mediterranean (myrtle and seaweed) aromas and closes in a woody and musky finish.


    Tips
    The scented candles give the rooms a pleasant and delicate scent, they are very trendy interior décor elements and home accessories that give originality and elegance.
    Follow our tips for optimal use.


    1. Shutdown
    It would be natural to blow on the candle to put it out. This action, on the other hand, has always been erroneously practiced first of all because, in general, the air feeds the fire while what extinguishes it is precisely the lack of the latter; also because blowing on the flame creates smoke which eliminates all the scent acquired in the room.
    The right practice is to use a suitable tool, or alternatively a toothpick (preferably moistened) and carefully lower the wick until it goes out by briefly dipping it in the wax.
    2. Fragrance
    To keep the fragrance alive and intact every time it is lit, it is important to keep the candle lit for at least 2 hours each time. In this way the combustion process will be complete and homogeneous; 2 hours is also the ideal time to allow the candle to begin to release its scent and radiate it into the environment.
    3. Form
    It is not difficult for potted candles to create unevenness in the shape of the surface; the candle melts in depth but not in width and this implies a great waste of the product. To avoid this effect it will be sufficient to make sure that every time the candle is lit, it burns at least to the point of melting and making the entire first layer of wax liquid. When it goes out and cools it will be perfectly level again.
    4. Consumption
    The consumption of the candle becomes very important when it comes to an end. Generally the container of the candle itself is a very important and pleasing to the eye, so we advise you to reuse it for other purposes.
    5. To always have ideal wicks, we recommend using our Flame Cutter Scissor (sold separately) which allows you to cut wicks up to 3 mm to ensure a clean and uniform flame and maximum diffusion of the fragrance.
