Description
A baptismal candle like a soft glow in the sky: We handcraft this "Aurora Borealis" scented candle in our candle workshop at Grundfarm Wachskunst in Weidenberg. We add the colors to the still-hot wax. There they flow freely into one another and form soft transitions – almost like a watercolor. Every color gradient is created anew and makes your candle unique.
Dove, cross, water and fish are recessed into the wax. In this version, sunbeams surround the cross. They distinguish the candle from our version without sunbeams. A fine wax bead chain complements the cross in silver or gold. When lit, the light shines through the recessed motifs and brings out the colors inside.
For the baptism, you can solemnly light the candle with a flame. After that, it can be illuminated from within with the included LED light in the base, without consuming any wax. This way, it can always accompany you as a memorial light of the baptism – also at the communion, confirmation and other special moments.
Your personal inscription
Choose silver or gold for decoration and lettering. Upon request, we write the name, baptism date and a baptismal verse or a personal dedication by hand with a fine brush on the candle. For longer texts, we will coordinate with you to ensure there is enough space for it to be well readable.
Base price: €69.90 with LED light, without custom lettering. The lettering costs €0.20 per entered character; spaces and punctuation marks are included.
For the font color, please enter "S " for silver or "G " for gold before your actual text in the custom field. A separate selection of the font color is currently not possible in the shop. The letter and the following space are included in the price calculation, but are not written on the candle. Please check the name, date and baptismal verse especially before ordering.
Example price: "S Frida 26.09.2026 Psalm 91:11+12" has 33 entered characters. The lettering costs €6.60; together with the candle, that is €76.50, plus shipping if applicable. Your actual price depends on your entry.
We write your words by hand individually and coordinate them with the motifs. How exactly the lettering will look will only emerge during the design process. Our product photos and the still-growing gallery give you an impression of our handwriting – we look forward to crafting your candle with care for you.
For the day of the baptism
Please provide the date of the baptism ceremony when ordering, so that we can coordinate the production accordingly. With the included lighting candle, you can solemnly transfer the light of the Easter or altar candle to the baptismal candle. This way, you do not have to hold the decorated candle directly over a large flame and protect the wick and wax motifs from soot and heat.
