GRAVE WAX
For medical students in the 18th and 19th centuries, understanding anatomy was not deemed necessary to cure disease. For many, their knowledge of the inner workings of a human body was limited to their observation of public dissections in anatomical theatres. Hanged criminals were the only lawful source of cadavers at the time, so as the importance of dissection became more clear, supply could not meet demand. Incredibly detailed wax models made from plaster casts of flayed corpses became a popular alternative.

The Grave Wax collection brings the macabre allure of those dark days to your cabinet of curiosities, seance, haunted house or Halloween party with all natural, hand-poured beeswax candles cast from an actual human spine.
