Water Tower Candle
The historic stone tower in Ypsilanti, MI is not only an area landmark, but holds a place of quirky distinction and local pride. It borders both Eastern Michigan University where I went to art school, and the Normal Park neighborhood where I live. This candle is offered in celebration of our beloved water tower – uniquely Ypsilanti.
The tower was designed by William R. Coats and completed in 1890. It sits atop the highest point in Ypsilanti. Made of Joliet limestone, the tower is almost 150 feet tall. For more information about Ypsilanti’s historic stone tower, visit YCUA.org
My Ypsilanti Water Tower Candle is 8.5” tall, and is made of soy wax. All canldles are unscented. It is made using a 2-part silicone glove mold / plaster mold combination.
