Description
A calm grey, a touch of colour and loving symbols for the journey of life: For this rustic-style baptismal candle, we select a high-quality blank candle and continue to decorate it by hand in our workshop in Weidenberg. We colour the lower section in blue, pink or turquoise, according to your choice. We carefully apply the dove, cross and fine silver details to the candle.
The dove stands for peace and blessing, the cross for the Christian faith. As we colour and decorate each candle individually, the colour gradient and arrangement of the details may differ slightly from the sample image.
Your personal candle
The name and baptism date are included in the price of the candle. Please provide both when ordering and check the spelling carefully.
Upon request, we can add a short baptismal verse in gold or silver. We write it by hand in the coloured section of the candle. Space is limited there – a short sentence will look best.
This is how you specify the colour of the lettering for the baptismal verse: In the customisation field, place an “S” for silver or a “G” for gold before the verse. It is not currently possible to select the lettering colour separately in the shop. The colour code will not be written on the candle.
Base price: €89.90 including the name, baptism date and a candle plate of your choice. An additional short baptismal verse costs €0.20 per character entered. Spaces, punctuation marks and the preceding “S” for silver or “G” for gold are included. The colour code will not be written on the candle.
Example price: “S God protect you” has 18 characters. The additional baptismal verse costs €3.60; the total is €93.50, plus shipping if applicable. The price is the same with “G God protect you”.
We write your words individually by hand with a fine brush. The exact appearance of the lettering on your candle will only become clear during the design process. The product photos and our gallery give you an idea of our handwriting – we look forward to enhancing your candle for you.
