Description

Scented Glass Candle - Phrenology

During the Victorian era in the 19th century, science’s intense fascination with the human mind gave rise to a theory as unique as it was fascinating: phrenology.

It was the study of character based on the shape of the skull, its bumps, indentations, and so on...

Totally fanciful and totally false!

Back then, any medical office worth its salt was expected to display this ceramic or porcelain skull, delineating the invisible boundaries of our mental faculties.

To be considered a pseudoscience.
