A Fornasetti candle is not just a candle, but a decorative object and collectible masterpiece. Once the candle is finished, you are left with a beautiful decorative object to enjoy. Vessels can be used to store toiletries in powder room, for floral arrangements, for teabags for tea service, and more.

 

Bacio is one of the most famous images by Fornasetti. The face is that of opera singer Lina Cavalieri, the artist's muse featured in more than 350 of his designs.

The "Otto" (Eight) scent is a sophisticated and unique scent that transcends time, season, gender, and borders. It includes ingredients that were of personal significance to the artist: Mediterranean herbs that were found in and around the family home, woods often utilized in interior designs or pieces of furniture created by Fornasetti. Other more ethereal ingredients, such as incense, conjure a latent spirituality or sense of dreamscape that is often present in Fornasetti graphic poetry.

Additional Details:

  • Top notes: thyme, lavender
  • Mid notes: oris, cedarwood
  • Base notes: tolu balsam, incense, birch/styrax, lebdanum
  • 10.5 oz. candle
  • 60 hour burn time
  • Ceramic vessel hand crafted by Ceramiche Dal Pra and stamped underneath with the Fornasetti seal

About the Designer:

Piero Fornasetti was a Milanese painter, sculptor, interior decorator, engraver of books and a creator of more than 11,000 products. In terms of decorative output, Fornasetti’s production of objects and furniture is one of the most prolific of the 20th century.

Fornasetti is celebrated as being one of the most original creative talents of the last century. During his long career he perfected his art and made use of a rich visual vocabulary that is instantly recognizable and constantly engages. Fornasetti designed a magical dream world, saturated in richness of imagery and filled with whimsical humor.

The Fornasetti Atelier in Milan is an outpost of careful and accomplished craft production. Here skilled craftsmen and women use the same rigorous hand crafted techniques that were deployed in the very first Fornasetti designs. Color is applied by hand and the original paper patterns are still meticulously followed. Maintaining the quality of this craftsmanship is an important aspect of the Fornasetti legacy.

A good one, albeit not a perfect one
It is a comprehensive look into the series with lots of wonderful art. I felt that it was thinner than the previous book from the Avatar series but I'm not talking about the length of the book (I know this one has less pages an only covers one season) but rather about the "insights" into the creative process. While the previous book felt full to the seams and you could feel that there was a lot of important material that didn't fit, you also felt that all the material that did was included was the best. In this one for Korra, you feel that there were many important things left out that should have been included and there are some things that were included that doesn't feel as important...

Everything you wanted put into a art book
I loved this art book. It showed me basically everything I wanted to see from back drops used and unused, old character designs and how some things came to be or what they were inspired by. The commentary is great though rarely confusing (Ex: at one point they commentary refers to a picture in the top right but says "As you can see by the design in the middle" the middle being something completely different) I feel like this book is a must for fans and people interested in the art of the series alike.

This is how you make an artbook!!
It's so awesome to open an artbook and see every stage of the character and how it all came together. It's always fun and interesting to know how Korra was made, and why whe looks the way it looks. It's really cool to read the different ideas that came up for a certain character and why they decided that a certain design worked better than the previous ones! It's also really interesting and delicious to read about how they inspired themselves in known architecture to create the environment in this tv series. I simply loved it and I'm excited to know that I'll be buying the other Korra artbooks!!!

Great artwork for a great series!! Recommended to artists, animators and fans of the series
It's been a while since the Avatar: The Last Airbender series ran on TV. I really loved that series because it dealt with a lot of eastern cultures themes and it was not the average children TV show. Despite its children characters the show runners manged to find a balance between drama and comedy. Now about the art book: that series (Avatar) had its own book (all seasons in one single book) but this time we are getting one book entirely dedicated to the first season, which makes it great. Why? Because we are getting more artwork per episode, most of it in full-color. I would have liked to see more of the character design, I mean how they got to the final version. Most of the characters are shown in their final version with some costume variants but that's it, no development. One thing missing this time (both from the series and this book) is the animal designs. They had a lot 2-animal-fusion designs on the previous show but this time we get to see almost nothing. I know it is because the series is takes place mainly in Republic City. And wow! what a nice city it is. All the artwork dedicated to set Republic City's mood, the 1920s, the steam-punk influence, the fashion, everything just fits perfectly! There is a couple of aerial views (day & night) which are my favorite from the book. This new guy they hired to do the background paintings has done a great job! Every background and every building design have so much detail that they will make your jaw just drop. I like the fact they are paintings with no pencil lines, just paint brushed over the design, which makes it look richer! Now, I am giving this book a 4-star rating because of the reasons I have already explained and the fact that we are not getting that much in-depth information like we got from the Avatar art book . I must say this is not an animation book, this is an art book that depicts backgrounds, characters and vehicles. You will get to see a few storyboarded sequences but this book is not intended to teach you about animation. I seriously recommend this book to any person interested in art and animation. The artwork is so well achieved that you will be left wanting to see more.

Inspirational for Concepts and Illustration
I am learning to be a Concept Designer and Illustrator and this art book is inspirational. This art book has well presented examples for most every part of the conception and finishing process for characters, environments, costumes, props, and story. It has a good amount of design concepts from everything about the series first season: character designs, character sheets, building and city designs, costumes, vehicles, etc. I only wish is was longer/bigger. They could put all 4 seasons into one large encompassing volume.
