Designer: Skeem Product Design The Specimen candles collection combines drawings, documentation, and charts inspired by the field of journals of Victorian naturalists, and had wonderful scents of nature.
Description: During the 19th century, the Victorian naturalists developed our modern-day understanding of natural history. The shift form "philosophy" to "science" occured during this period, shaping our understanding of evolution. This collection was inspired by the field journals these scientists created during their observations. Specimens, illustrations and statistics were beautifully documented in leather bound journals, blurring the lines between art and science. The scents in this collection are also inspired by nature.
