This is the coolest concept for candles! I gave The Fall of Rome candle as a gift to a history buff. He loves it. It smells so nice and the container is hilarious and the rendering of Rome in candle form is outstanding. Though it is too nice to burn (says my history buff friend), some day he must do it because Rome did, indeed, fall 😆.

Seller's description

Specifications

May include: A silver-colored, round scented candle tin with a miniature white cityscape inside. The label reads "FALL OF ROME SCENTED CANDLE" in red and white. The candle features a wick and small green trees.

Nothing lasts forever, and that includes the Roman Empire.

The Fall of Rome-Scented Candle smells like cypress trees and red wine. Light it and watch the Roman forum melt into a puddle of wax while you quietly contemplate the impermanence of civilizations and/or candles.

Do you think individual Romans understood that their civilization was collapsing? Or did it happen so gradually that they were able to ignore the warning signs—international trade breaking down, the senate becoming a rubber stamp for the supreme leader, and political violence becoming expected during transfers of power?

It’s hard to say, because it’s impossible to imagine being in that kind of situation. In any event, hope you enjoy the candle!

NOTE: This candle is about the fall of the Western Roman Empire. If you are looking for a candle about the fall of the Byzantine Empire, you are going to have to make it yourself. (It probably won’t be as popular as our candle, but it will outlast it by about a thousand years.)

NOTE: Matches are not included. You will have to somehow acquire your own matches.
