Carrot Candle Set
The carrot candles are made from pure beeswax poured by hand into a mold made from an actual carrot. Each candle is distinct due to the slow production process, and the color varies slightly from batch to batch. Carrot candles are great as an uncanny display or illumination, and they look fantastic arranged on a celebratory confection—especially carrot cake. The candles are sold in sets of five.
Mason Hunt designs furniture and household goods that embody an uncanny function and handmade-ness in protest of mass production. His artworks emphatically insist on their appeal as display objects as much as their practicality. Combining humble materials like wood, steel, clay, wax, paper, and sculpted epoxy, he prioritizes elegant connections between dissimilar materials, hoping to make objects one can’t help but want to touch.
