Anne of Cleves was the fourth wife of King Henry VIII. After the death of his third wife, Jane Seymour, Henry went into deep mourning for years. His councilors finally convinced them that he needed to take another wife to produce a spare heir and they selected German princess Anne of Cleves. When Anne arrived in England, Henry was reportedly repulsed by her and considered backing out of the marriage. He went ahead with the marriage but had it annulled within the year. Since Anne was obedient to Henry when he said he wanted an annulment, he granted her land and castles, and she visited court often as his honored “sister”.
The ANNE OF CLEVES candle represents her homeland of what is known today as Germany. The strudel is a traditional German dessert filled with sugary, cinnamon, spiced apples, raisins, and baking pie crust. The unique wooden wick provides a robust crackle and burn.
