Explore This Amazing WorkArdora Candle
Ardora looks like an ordinary candle, but in fact it is very special. After being lit up, as the candle gradually melts it reveals a heart shape from within. The heart inside the candle is made out of heat-resistant ceramic. The wick separates inside the candle, going through the front and the back of the ceramic heart. In this way, the wax melts uniformly, revealing the heart inside. The candle can have different scents which can produce a very pleasant atmosphere. At a first glance, people would think that it is a usual candle, but as the candle melts they can discover its special feature.
