Velluto Bianco Ribbed Velvet Pillar Candle in Cream

The inspiration behind Velluto Bianco can be traced back to the heart of Florence, to a palazzo where the Renaissance itself found form in stone. This candle’s ribbed, sculpted silhouette echoes the columns of the Palazzo Vecchio, a fortress-palace that has stood for over 700 years in the very centre of Florentine civic life. Inside its quiet courtyard — pictured here — stand majestic pillars carved with scrolls, vines, and vertical fluting. Built in the 13th century and transformed during the 1500s under the rule of Duke Cosimo I de’ Medici, the palazzo became a symbol of power, beauty, and artistic rebirth. The fluted columns were not just structural; they were intentional. Their repeating grooves, reaching upward like carved fabric, created rhythm and harmony — a balance between function and grace. This balance is what inspired the Velluto collection. With Velluto Bianco, we’ve brought a quiet echo of that world into modern interiors — capturing the softness of light against stone, the elegance of sculpted lines, and the historical calm found in the spaces where art and architecture meet. Made for homes that appreciate heritage as much as beauty, it invites you to light a candle… and step, for a moment, into Florence.
