Photerian’s Garumon Lava Guardian stands at the crossroads of fire and earth — a molten spirit clad in beeswax armor. Its face blazes in red while streaks of black, green, and white suggest both magma and moss, destruction and renewal. Hand-poured in Japan from 100% pure beeswax, each candle is a sculptural being that seems to have crawled out of the core of a planet and cooled just long enough to glow again.
Light it, and the form transforms slowly — an evolving artwork that reveals new shapes as the wax melts. Even unlit, the Lava Guardian exudes the strange dignity of a mythic protector, caught between eruption and stillness.
WHY IT’S SPECIAL
Every Garumon candle is a singular being — part kaiju, part shrine relic. The Lava Guardian captures Photerian’s signature balance of humor, folklore, and handcraft, embodying both chaos and calm.
