Bottega Veneta has just launched a new line of scented candles that embody the house’s commitment to artisanal craftsmanship. These exquisite candles are housed in one-of-a-kind, handmade clay pots with stunning volcanic glazes, each a unique work of art. The glazes pay homage to Bottega Veneta’s Venetian roots, evoking the city’s marbled architecture and shimmering waterways.
The scented candles come in three distinctive fragrances, each carefully crafted from essential oils:
- Raintree: Encased in a lush green pot, this soft, green scent combines sweet fig, aromatic thyme and lavender absolute to evoke the warmth and promise of a Mediterranean summer.
- Lantern: Housed in a bold yellow vessel, this spicy, sophisticated blend of frankincense, suede rose and vetiver creates a sensual, suede-like ambiance.
- Redstone: Presented in a vibrant red vessel, this rich, leathery scent blends plum nectar, tobacco and cedar wood with sweet amber notes for depth and comfort.

The volcanic glaze on the clay pots appears to be in motion, mimicking the intricate and kinetic leatherwork that has become a hallmark of creative director Matthieu Blazy’s designs. Each pot is a one-of-a-kind creation, making these scented candles true collector’s items.
Once the mineral wax has burned off, the beautiful ceramic jars can be reused as decorative and functional objects in the home, serving as stylish storage containers, vases or display pieces. This thoughtful design choice reflects Bottega Veneta’s commitment to sustainability and versatility.
Bottega Veneta scented candles, £320 each (approximately €375 or $407 USD), are now available at bottegaveneta.com.
