From Ancient Relic to Modern Decor: The Roman Dodecahedron Candle
Discover the Mystery of the Roman Dodecahedron — Now as a Sculptural Candle
What Is a Roman Dodecahedron?
If you're into ancient artifacts, you're going to love this.
The Roman Dodecahedron is one of the most mysterious objects ever found from the Roman Empire. It’s a small, hollow, 12-faced object — each face a perfect pentagon, often with a hole in the middle and little knobs on the corners. Historians have discovered them across Europe, from the UK to Germany and France. But here's the kicker: no one actually knows what they were used for.
Some believe it was a tool for astronomy, others think it was a candlestick holder, or maybe even a religious object. Whatever the case, one thing’s for sure: it’s an incredibly beautiful shape that’s stood the test of time.
And now? It’s made its way into modern home decor — as a stunning sculptural candle.
