This collection was not planned. It came about by chance. I was working on two other collections at the same time. For one, I had prepared concrete vessels coated with pearlescent mastic, while the other required bronze-tinted concrete varnish. The phone rang. Reaching for it, I knocked over the container of prepared varnish, which flowed across the tabletop, and at the same time knocked over one of the pearlescent vessels, which rolled through the bronze varnish on the table. And that is how the first vessel in the “It Happens” collection came into being. Life is full of chance occurrences that change what happens next. But perhaps nothing happens by chance...

You can view all the pieces in the "It Happens" collection here!  The images show prototypes of the collection's pieces. Each candle is made using the collection's special formula, but each candle is also a unique handmade piece, so the vessel's design may differ slightly from the design shown in the image.

Candles in concrete vessels have an excellent feature: as the candle burns, the vessel walls heat up and help the flame melt the wax, so the candle always burns down completely, without leaving a layer of unburned wax on the vessel walls. The base of the candle vessel is thick enough to prevent it from becoming hot and damaging the surface on which the candle is placed. If you are still concerned that the vessel may damage the surface on which it will be placed, you can purchase candle coasters with a heat-resistant oak veneer finish in the "Candle Coasters" section. Once the candle has burned down, you can easily refill the vessel yourself by purchasing a 500-gram pack of palm wax sand in the "Candle Sand" section. This pack will allow you to refill the vessel three times. The pack includes two types of wicks and instructions for making a candle. Of course, once the candle has burned down, you can also place any ready-made candle that fits inside the vessel, or use the vessel for other household purposes, such as a vase. The concrete vessel is not suitable for storing unpackaged food.

Technical product information. On the first use, burn until the top layer of wax has completely melted (1-4 hours depending on the vessel diameter and number of wicks). Before relighting, trim the wicks to 1 cm above the wax surface.
