Genderless Corn Silk Poppet in Black Beeswax

In sympathetic magic, the poppet is used as an effigy to physically manifest the theory of "like creates like". Our cornsilk poppet is a gender neutral expression of the human form that can be molded to fit the needs of your craft. Sculpted by hand our corn silk poppet is a Vespertide Apotheca propriety design and cannot be found anywhere else. Hand poured in sunny southern California from 100% pure California beeswax, ethically sourced from local apiaries. Our beeswax candles use 100% cotton wicks with no hard metals. This candle is dyed with vegetable dye and is coated with a fine dust of mica. The mica we use is sustainably sourced and mined without child labor from mines in the United States and Europe. All of our candles are hand poured in California and crafted with intention for the discerning witch. We are a disposable plastic free company and our shipping materials, including our tape, is plastic free and biodegradable.

NOTE - If a company is claiming "Organic Beeswax", then it is from a foreign source. Organic beeswax rarely exists in the United States, as there is no way to ensure where a bee collects its pollen. Foreign sellers will falsely list beeswax as "organic" because no testing or proof is required by the US government for imported items labeled "organic" (most imported beeswax is from China). Our wax is produced from local California hives and from trusted apiaries.

Warning: All figural candles will drip wax and run, as there is no containment apparatus, Please make sure to burn the candle in a wax/fireproof container on a heat resistant surface. Burn within sight. Keep away from flammables. Keep away from children. Trim wick to ¼" before lighting. Do not burn more than 3-4 hours.
