Inspiration

The word "Kilim" comes from the Persian word "Gelim" and refers to a woollen carpet with a flat stitch, and a combination of warp and weft threads. 

Its Middle Eastern, Persian or Caucasian origins are thousands of years old and the Kilims by their decorations and colours preserve the memory of both nomadic and sedentary people. 

Each tribe or village had its own decoration and used its own colours drawn from natural pigments. Whether complex or pure, abstract or figurative, decorations form symbolic writings inherited from ancient shamanic beliefs. 

To create the silk-screened decoration of the Kilim candle, Baobab Collection chose to draw inspiration from Moldavian and Romanian carpets, most of which feature very colourful floral motifs. 

These shimmering carpets have become, over the last ten years, one of the key decorative elements of urban tribes that highlight eclecticism and travel in their homes. 

The glass of the Kilim scented candle is covered with a gold and coloured silk-screen print that represents the floral and stylized motifs of Moldavian carpets. The decoration, delicately applied to the glass by hand in the workshop, is placed in a high temperature oven so that it can perfectly adhere to the material. 

Fragrance

Its floral and musky fragrance will spread a sophisticated and refined olfactory assortment, in keeping with the richness of the glass decoration

"With Baobab Collection the candle becomes an object of decoration. Like the baobab tree in the African savannah, the candle impresses and stands out from the ordinary. An ordinary product that becomes extraordinary. This is probably what defines luxury."
