- About this item
- "Bongazi" is an African word that encapsulates the noble and luxurious powerful, earthy tones and traditional patterns of Africa.
- Set of 2 Gift-packaged Dinner Tapers. Candles measure approximately 9-inches tall x .75-inches in diameter. Burn time averages 10 hours.
- Unscented, high-quality, fully-refined paraffin wax from Germany. Non-toxic color pigments and natural wicks. Individually hand-painted. Designs will have differences, but will be consistent in colors and icons that reflect the style.
- Each candle is hand poured and hand painted by South African artisans with years of experience. After the candles are poured, they are handed off to the special background painters, who paint the entire wax candle with a base color that sets the tone for the design work. Masterful artists then paint the designs on each piece. It is truly exciting to watch the lightening-fast strokes of the paintbrushes transform what was molten wax into gorgeously colorful, individualized works of art!
- Nobunto is a Sotho word which means “for the people”. The company name, as well as logo of four intertwined hands reflects their motivation and spirt: community, cooperation, friendship, global harmony, helping hands, multicultural, people, teamwork and fair trade.
