I'm currently crushing on these surreal hand candles from young Parisian collective Atelier WM, which are based on prints of real hands and are available in three different signs: West Coast, Hard Rock and Star Trek. They're now available instore and online at French store Colette. (My vote? Vulcan, all the way.)
Hours of fun watching them burn! Especially the Vulcan one with only two "wick-ed" fingers...will it burn right down the middle of the hand, spliting it into two?

Oh no, I don't like those at all! They are freaking me out!

I'd worry I'd wake up in the middle of the night and find them crawling up the bedclothes! Good gift though.

Likkle girl - I was wondering the same thing. The photos of the fingers burning look pretty amazing. But yeah ... I guess you're left with a stump of sorts!
