Fiat
These graceful scents of strawberry and acacia wood are inspired by Our Lady of the Annunciation.
Nuanced with notes of blossoms and hints of exotic spices.
Behind the Inspiration
At the moment of her “fiat,” the Blessed Virgin Mary became also the Blessed Mother. The strawberry plant signifies this mystery, as it both blossoms and fruits at the same time. Acacia wood points to Our Lady as the new Ark of the Covenant, since she carried God in her very self.
The feast of the Annunciation is March 25.
You’ll get the cleanest, longest, and safest burn from your candle with a few simple steps:
- Always trim the wick before lighting to 1/8”–1/4”
- Burn until the melted wax reaches edge to edge, or very nearly, to reduce tunneling
- Burn only up to 4 hours at a time
- Always keep a burning candle in sight, away from flammable materials, out of drafts, out of reach of pets and children, and on a heat-safe surface
- Keep out of direct sunlight
Corda Candles attracted me because the company is faith-based. This means that lots of thought and prayer went into the making. When I light my FIAT candle, I am reminded of the Blessed Mother and her humble willingness to do what the Father asks of her. Lighting and burning a CORDA candle is a meditation.
I gifted Fiat as a Christmas present to my wife. She loves it. Beautiful fragrance, wonderful design.
I absolutely enjoy the aroma of sweet strawberries filling my home. The glass jar is beautiful, and the label is so gentle with lovely shades of pink/red.
I bought the tea lights for a retreat and I am very well pleased. The scent is amazing! You can tell she uses high quality ingredients. Most other candles use lesser ingredients and smell artifical, but not Corda. I can tell from how beautiful each candle is that it is made with love.
Our Lady of the Annunciation and Archangel Gabriel made a perfect accompaniment while praying a novena during a pregnancy … powerful, yet peaceful!
Corda candles are becoming a "staple" around our home. I recently purchased Our Lady of the Annunciation/Strawberries & Acacia Wood. Oh my!!
The fragrance that fills the room is amazing...a PERFECT balance of each scent note.
This truly aids in preparing my heart before the Lord!!! What a wonderful addition to bring to the table in His presence!!!
As other reviews have said, this candle has a light, sweet strawberry sent. it smells exactly like I thought it would and I love it! Thank you Corda for another beautiful candle!
