Description
Illumination candle for baptism with fish and LED light
A light for the beginning of a new journey through life: We craft this baptism candle with fish and dove by hand in our candle workshop at Grundfarm Wachskunst in Weidenberg. Beneath the white outer wax lie soft colors. We add them to the still-hot wax, where they flow freely into one another – almost like a watercolor painting. Every color gradient is created anew, making your candle unique.
The fish and dove are embedded in the wax. When light shines through the motifs, the colors inside come to life. The fish is a Christian symbol of faith; the dove stands for peace and blessing.
For the baptism, you can solemnly light the candle with a flame. Afterwards, 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 First Communion, Confirmation, and other special moments.
Your personal inscription
Upon request, we write the name, baptism date, and a baptismal verse or personal dedication on the candle with a fine brush in silver or gold. For longer texts, we will coordinate with you to ensure there is enough space for it to be easily readable.
Base price: €69.90 with LED light, without custom inscription. The inscription 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 font color is currently not possible in the shop. The letter and the following space are included in the price calculation but will not be written on the candle. Please check the name, date, and baptismal verse carefully before ordering.
Example price: “S Frida 26.09.2026 Psalm 91,11+12” has 33 entered characters. The inscription 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. What the lettering will look like exactly will only become apparent during the design process. Our product photos and our ever-growing gallery give you an impression of our handwriting – we look forward to carefully crafting your candle 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 baptism 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.
