The zodiac illustrations are stunning making for a great decorative piece too, but should you opt for an alternative artwork, Metafisca is Fornasetti’s signature and most well-known piece. It features the artists muse, Lina Cavalieri who was also an artist during the 19th and 20th century but was also considered “the most beautiful woman in the world”. Thus, this became Fornasetti’s recurring theme in almost 400 variations. Whichever you choose, the scent speaks for itself and though the candle itself may fade overtime, what you get in the end, is a timeless porcelain trinket that can be used for various things, or even to collect.
