Inspired by stalagmites, its ring-shaped body rises into soft peaks, giving the candle the character of a table object even before it is lit.

Made from paraffin wax, Stala is designed as both a functional candle and a decorative centerpiece. The four wicks create several points of flame, making it especially suited to dining tables, sideboards, mantels, holiday settings, and evening gatherings where a single candle can anchor the arrangement.

The candle comes in two colors. Sand has a lighter, softer look that works well with neutral ceramics, pale woods, and winter whites. Dark Grape is deeper and warmer, closer to a wine-toned bordeaux, and gives the piece more visual weight on darker tables or holiday settings.

Because this is a wax candle, not a candleholder, it should always be placed on a flat, stable tray or plate before lighting. Trim each wick before use, keep the candle away from drafts and heat sources, and never leave it burning unattended. The burn time is approximately 20 hours.

Deconstructivism Candle 8, Land of Fire — Red https://shop.gessato.com/deconstructivism-candle-8-land-of-fire-red/ https://shop.gessato.com/deconstructivism-candle-8-land-of-fire-red/#respond Sun, 24 Aug 2025 23:53:25 +0000 https://shop.gessato.com/?post_type=product&p=155002 Does it feel like warm citrus tea?
Yes—white tea and ginger with a bright spark of kaffir lime, lemon, and sweet orange.

From SOAPMEN’s Deconstructivism series with BOLTBOLT (Gallery), Candle 8 — Land of Fire turns heat into geometry: a deep-red column cut with a curved shield that reads like a small architectural model. Strike the wick and it opens zesty and crystalline; the middle settles around ginger and a soft jasmine trace, finishing like steam off a fresh cup of tea. Short burns keep the citrus sharp; longer sessions coax out the cozy warmth.

Deconstructivism Candle 7, Edible Books — Brown https://shop.gessato.com/deconstructivism-candle-7-edible-books-brown/ https://shop.gessato.com/deconstructivism-candle-7-edible-books-brown/#respond Sun, 24 Aug 2025 23:48:38 +0000 https://shop.gessato.com/?post_type=product&p=154993 Is this the cozy coffee one?
Yes—soft espresso and warm spice up top, settling into dry woods and amber.

From SOAPMEN’s Deconstructivism series with BOLTBOLT (Gallery), Candle 7 — Edible Books turns a rounded spine against a sharp plane—like a hardback half-pulled from a shelf. Light it and the room moves from citrus-bright coffee to pepper, nutmeg, and sage, then quiets into sandalwood, vetiver, cedar, and a touch of amber. Short burns keep the coffee note vivid; longer sessions draw the woods forward.

Deconstructivism Candle 6, Frigid Wonderland — Blue https://shop.gessato.com/deconstructivism-candle-6-frigid-wonderland-blue/ https://shop.gessato.com/deconstructivism-candle-6-frigid-wonderland-blue/#respond Sun, 24 Aug 2025 22:53:50 +0000 https://shop.gessato.com/?post_type=product&p=154985 Does it smell like cold forest air?
Yes—icy citrus up top, conifer sap in the middle, then dry vetiver and sandalwood.

From SOAPMEN’s Deconstructivism series with BOLTBOLT (Gallery), Candle 6 — Frigid Wonderland is a teal-blue column cut with wings and an oval shield—part totem, part small sculpture. Strike the wick and it opens with Buddha’s hand, lime, and kumquat; the heart turns needle-green (snow pine, cedarwood, Douglas fir); the dry-down lands on clean vetiver with a pale sandalwood trace. Short burns keep the citrus crystalline; longer sessions draw out the woods.

Set it on a tray and let the form live between burns, or cluster it with other numbers to build a jagged skyline on the mantel.

Deconstructivism Candle 4, Wild Growth of Grass — Green https://shop.gessato.com/deconstructivism-candle-4-wild-growth-of-grass-green/ https://shop.gessato.com/deconstructivism-candle-4-wild-growth-of-grass-green/#respond Sun, 24 Aug 2025 22:49:20 +0000 https://shop.gessato.com/?post_type=product&p=154977 Does it smell like wet grass after rain?
Yes—bright, spicy greens with grapefruit-tomato lift, then a warm incense finish.

From SOAPMEN’s Deconstructivism series with BOLTBOLT (Gallery), Candle 4 — Wild Growth of Grass turns the “garden” idea into architecture: splayed planes, a stepped base, and a tall green column poured in small batches—no two exactly alike. The scent opens sharp and lush (green mango, grapefruit, tomato), moves through a cool floral heart (jasmine, lotus, citrus), and settles into frankincense with a leathery shadow and a hint of cinnamon. Short burns keep the cut-grass edge crisp; longer sessions pull the resin and spice to the front.  Set it on a tray and let it live like a small sculpture between burns. Pair with Candle 1 for a green-on-green duo, or cluster the series to build a jagged skyline on the mantel.

Yes—fresh coffee and warm spice up top, easing into sandalwood, vetiver, cedar, and amber.

From SOAPMEN’s Deconstructivism series with BOLTBOLT (Gallery), Candle 3 — Edible Books stacks faceted volumes into a tall brown totem—part sculpture, part scent experiment. Light it and the room moves from citrus-bright coffee to a pepper–nutmeg–sage heart, then settles into dry woods with a gentle, ambery hush. Short burns keep the coffee note vivid; longer sessions pull the woods forward.

SOAPMEN Deconstructivism Candle 2, Grafting — Yellow https://shop.gessato.com/soapmen-deconstructivism-candle-2-grafting-yellow/ https://shop.gessato.com/soapmen-deconstructivism-candle-2-grafting-yellow/#respond Sun, 24 Aug 2025 22:37:56 +0000 https://shop.gessato.com/?post_type=product&p=154960 Does it really smell like old books?
Yes—dry paper and wood shavings at first strike, then rose and lily soften into vetiver, sandalwood, and pine.

From SOAPMEN’s Deconstructivism series with BOLTBOLT (Gallery), Candle 2 — Grafting stacks offset volumes into a mustard-yellow block that reads like an architectural model. It questions the usual “candle = cylinder” rule and leans into mood instead: library light at 4 p.m., card catalog drawers, dust on polished wood. The opening flashes tuberose, violetwood, and grapefruit-bright lift; the heart turns floral and quiet; the base lands warm, slightly resinous. Short sessions keep the papery top notes vivid; longer burns pull forward the woods.

Soapmen Deconstructivism Candle 1, Green https://shop.gessato.com/soapmen-deconstructivism-candle-1-green/ https://shop.gessato.com/soapmen-deconstructivism-candle-1-green/#respond Sun, 24 Aug 2025 19:42:35 +0000 https://shop.gessato.com/?post_type=product&p=154942 Does it really smell “green”?
Yes—crisp, spicy grass with flashes of green mango and tomato leaf over warm frankincense and cinnamon.

From SOAPMEN’s Deconstructivism series shown at BOLTBOLT (Gallery), Candle 1 turns architectural geometry into scent: a deep-green column cut with sharp planes, poured in small batches so no two are quite the same.

The accord opens bright (grapefruit, green mango, tomato), moves into a watery-floral heart (jasmine, lotus, citrus), and settles on a resinous base (frankincense, cinnamon, a leathery hint). It throws clean and cool without reading “perfume-y,” then mellows as the wax pool grows. Burn for short sessions to keep edges crisp; cluster with other numbers in the series for a small, sculptural skyline.
