Draped Classical Portrait Bust Silicone Candle Mold

Curled hair and fabric swept across the shoulders give this portrait bust a classical sculpture style. The silicone candle mold creates a full head-and-shoulders form with defined facial features, layered drapery and detailed hair at the back.

Protect the Hair and Facial Details

Support the mold upright while pouring. Let the wax set fully before releasing the silicone gradually around the curls, nose and draped shoulder edges. Support the bust as it comes free, then clean the mold gently and dry thoroughly. Test the wick and wax combination in this broad sculptural form and use a heat-resistant holder when burning the finished candle.
