Ionic Pillar • Large
The Piece
Pillar-shaped candle with ribbed outer surface.
The History
Columns are a show of strength, workmanship and beauty. The volutes on top of Ionic columns have historically been compared to scrolls, female ovaries and ram horns and are believed to have symbolised wisdom, the female anatomy and strength respectively.
The Meaning
Ionic columns are one of three classical column styles used in Ancient Greek architecture, the others being Doric and Corinthian. Every column is made of a base, a shaft, and the volute on top, shaped like a scroll or spiral.

VESY candles pay homage to icons + meanings of an ancient world. Every candle is handmade, eco-friendly, sustainable + the perfect addition to your space.
VESY candles are made to be put on display. To preserve the look and quality of your candle and prevent discolouration, always keep it away from drafts, air vents and sunlight.
Each candle is specially hand-poured. Variances may occur from one piece to another.
All VESY candles are intended as decorative home decor. However, if you wish to burn them please adhere to the following recommendations:
- Always trim the candle wick 3-5mm each time before lighting to ensure a clean, smoke-free burn.
- Allow wax to solidify between burns before trimming.
- Allow the candle to burn for at least one hour when first lit to allow for an adequate melt pool.
- To avoid damaging surfaces, furniture or other objects, please place your candle in a deep dish or on a heat-safe surface before lighting.
- Keep away from children, pets and any flammable items. As each candle is hand-poured, some variances may occur. Never leave a lit candle unattended.
- Due to the intricate designs, the wax melt can leak and drip excessively. We suggest you blow out the candle, wait for the wax to solidify (ensuring it is not hot) and place back on top to block the leak holes.
Expected dispatch is 1-3 working days.
