Description
Baobab Collection candles are created using high quality raw materials sourced in Europe. The ceramics are handmade in Portugal, the mineral wax comes from Germany, and the scents are created and perfected in Grasse. Each Baobab candle is hand-poured in multiple pouring phases into containers that have been created by master craftsmen, making each candle completely unique.
The ksars are the fortified towns of the pre-Saharan landscape. Consisting of groupings of several kasbahs, the ksars are emblematic of the Berber architecture of the High Atlas. Geometric shapes adorn the mountains like organized cubes. The earthen walls are sculpted with honeycomb-like shapes, used to reinforce the edifice. The kasbahs are impressive in the varied complexity of their architecture and serve as the inspiration for the Ksar limited-edition collection, created as a tribute to this magnificent architecture, but also to the people who lived there.
El Glaoui refers to the lord of Talhou, chief of the Glaoua tribe. The ceramics, handmade by Baobab craftsmen, are sculpted with geometric motifs reminiscent of the fortification walls of the ksars. A two-tone glaze required the skill of the ceramicists to highlight the relief, with a natural, glossy color on the outside and a plum, matte color on the inside. A floral fragrance of hibiscus, tea, and red fruits will transport you to the charm of Moroccan ksars.
Hibiscus, Tea, Red Fruit: A floral fragrance of hibiscus, tea and red fruits will transport you to the charm of Moroccan ksars.
About the Brand
Working with the tagline, “Where luxury home fragrance meets creative design,” Baobab Collection first saw the light of day in 2002, in the enchanting landscape of Tanzania, a country rich in intense colors and bewitching perfumes. The collections are inspired by faraway places and wild nature, but it is in Belgium that the new creations are dreamed up. The Baobab Collection finds unlimited inspirations through the wonders of the world. Each candle tells a new story: the name, the perfume, and the materials chosen are closely linked. The Belgian brand is committed to certain values including high-quality craftsmanship and respect for the environment. Like the baobab tree in the African savannah which inspired its name, each candle from Baobab makes an impression and stands out from the ordinary. Baobab Collection’s candles are known for their size and original designs. They are extraordinary objects providing an olfactory and aesthetic experience, crafted using materials that are carefully selected and sourced across Europe and created by the best European artisans.
