Having been to the Long Room at Trinity College in Dublin to view the Book of Kells, I knew I had to have this candle. I remember turning the corner to ascend the steps to the Long Room, smelling the leather, ink, and old pages from over a century of collecting, and then having my breath taken away as I entered that sacred place of knowledge with its soaring ceiling and dark wood. Every time I light my candle, I return to that thrilling moment.
