In a medieval town in Umbria, artisanal candle makers specialize in handcrafting the distinctive candle style “duplero,” meaning double. These sinuous double-helix candles have been produced in Italy for centuries and Collepino still hand-dips each candle, using techniques that date back to the Renaissance. Composed of 100% pure, natural beeswax, the candles’ color, ranging from bright amber to deep ochre, and sweet, subtle scent change with every seasonal production, in harmony with the pollen of wild-harvested beeswax. Dual hemp wicks produce a dramatic flame, with burning times of 1-4 hours depending on candle size.  Pairs with our Urbino Colossal Candleholders and Footed Candleholder.

An extension of Donna Lennard's beloved Il Buco restaurants, Il Buco Vita brings together handcrafted ceramics, linens, glassware, and decorative objects sourced from artisans across central Italy. Inspired by the collected, lived-in beauty of the restaurants themselves, the collection celebrates the imperfect elegance of handmade pieces and the enduring traditions behind them.
