Description
Sometimes a special day needs a very quiet light: We handcraft this baptismal candle with a tree of life in our candle workshop in Weidenberg. Beneath the white outer wax lies a soft blue. The understated colors give the motif room to breathe and make the candle an elegant companion for the baptism.
We create the tree of life from silver wax. Its delicate leaves shimmer in blue, matte and glossy silver. Next to it, a glowing cross is recessed into the wax and framed with a fine silver wax border. When the candle burns at the baptism, the light shines through the cross.
The tree stands for roots, growth, and one's own path in life. The cross serves as a reminder of the Christian blessing. Each candle is crafted individually using our rolling technique; small differences in the color gradient and wax details make each one unique.
It can continue to shine even after the baptism: With the included LED light, the candle can be illuminated without burning down further. This way, it remains visible in your home as a keepsake.
Your personal inscription
Upon request, we write the name, baptismal date, and a baptismal verse or personal dedication on the candle with a fine brush. You can choose silver or gold for the lettering.
How the custom lettering works: Place an "S" for silver or a "G" for gold before your text. This indication is for us and will not be written on the candle. A separate selection of font color is currently not possible in the shop. Please check the name, date, and verse before ordering.
Base price: €96.90 with tree of life, glowing cross, and LED light, without personal inscription. The custom lettering costs €0.20 per entered character; spaces, punctuation marks, and the preceding "S" for silver or "G" for gold are included. The color indication will not be written on the candle.
Example price: "S Frida 26.09.2026 Psalm 91:11+12" has 33 entered characters. The inscription costs €6.60; together that makes €103.50, plus shipping if applicable. Your actual price depends on your entry.
We write your words individually by hand with a fine brush and coordinate them with the calm motif. What the lettering on your candle will look like exactly will only become apparent during the design process. The product photos and our gallery give you an impression of our handwriting – we look forward to crafting your candle with care.

For the day of the baptism: Please state the baptismal date in your order so that we can coordinate the production with your occasion. With the included lighting candle, you can solemnly transfer the light of the Easter or altar candle to your baptismal candle. This way, you do not have to hold the decorated candle directly over the other flame.
Place the burning candle in a suitable, stable candle holder and never leave it unattended. Protect the wax from drafts, direct sunlight, and heating warmth. Keep batteries out of reach of small children and dispose of used batteries at a collection point.
Your candle makers at Grundfarm Wachskunst in Weidenberg wish you a beautiful glow and much joy in sharing the light.
