Description
A little ship setting sail on life: We craft this baptism candle with a Noah's Ark motif by hand in our candle workshop in Weidenberg. The colors flow from a delicate yellow to a deep blue. A sailing ship, a dove, and the inscription "For the Baptism" make it a special light for the baptism ceremony.
The story of Noah tells of preservation and a new beginning. The dove stands for peace and hope. Thus, the candle carries a loving wish for the baptized child: May it be protected on its journey.
We design each candle individually using our rolling technique. Small differences in the color gradient are part of the handmade process and make your baptism candle unique. After the celebration, it can be kept as a memento of this day and relit for special moments.
Your personal inscription
Upon request, we add the name, baptism date, and a short baptismal verse or personal dedication in silver. We write your words individually by hand with a fine brush. Please provide the text exactly as you want it to appear on the candle, and check the names and date before ordering.
Base price: €79.90 with Noah's Ark motif and the inscription "For the Baptism", without personal inscription. Your custom lettering in silver costs €0.20 per character; spaces and punctuation marks are included.
Example price: "Frida 26.09.2026" has 16 characters. The inscription costs €3.20; the total is €83.10, plus shipping if applicable. Your actual price depends on your custom text.
We carefully write your words to match the overall design. How the lettering on your candle will look exactly will only become apparent during the design process. The product photos and our gallery give you an idea of our handwriting – we look forward to crafting your candle for you.

For the day of the baptism: Please provide the baptism date when placing your order so that we can coordinate the production with your celebration. The included lighting candle allows the light of the Easter or altar candle to be ceremoniously transferred to the baptism candle. This way, you do not have to hold the decorated candle directly over the other flame.
Place the candle in a suitable, stable candle holder. Never leave it burning unattended and protect it from drafts, direct sunlight, and heating warmth.
Your candle makers at Grundfarm Wachskunst in Weidenberg wish you a beautiful glow and much joy in sharing the light.
