I have a lot of memories of summers spent in Italy with my family: the sea, the big rocks, the endless afternoons, and the incredible sunsets. There is something uniquely special about an Italian summer, a slower rhythm that invites you to enjoy life's simple pleasures and the present moment.

For this collaboration, I wanted to capture the essence of an intimate summer. Acropora was one of my very first design pieces, and reimagining it for this collaboration felt instinctive. Infused with notes of bergamot, the candle captures the freshness of the Mediterranean and transports you to the Italian coast. The pattern is inspired by the sound of the waves and their fluid movements.

I imagined this collection as an intimate journey that brings you back to long summer days by the water, familiar scents, and moments of quiet beauty.

An ode to summer memories by the sea. This collection is a celebration of craft, culture, and effortless elegance with Acqua di Parma.
