Olearius has entrusted us with the creation of their home candles and packaging. This time, vrai studio designing objects. These handcrafted candles, featuring a contemporary design created by us, are made of Limoges porcelain. Accompanied by a box of matches, these two candles expand the product line.
Products in their environment, decorative mood for communication
For Olearius, the candle is not a spin-off product. It is a natural extension of the brand into the world of home goods, designed with the same attention to detail as its olive oils.
The project began with a search for French porcelain manufacturers, followed by a prototyping phase to find the exact container that would match the brand’s premium positioning. The choice fell on white Limoges porcelain and black Haute-Vienne porcelain, two noble materials associated with durability and quality. The artistic direction for the packaging is identical to that of the olive oil. The product photography creates a minimalist aesthetic, with compositions based on contrasts between materials—ceramic, wax, and natural light. The object is prominent, clear, and authentic. The packaging does not seek to overshadow the object itself.
