What Makes Our Paschal Collection Special

The Paschal candle holds deep significance in the Paschal Triduum, serving as a powerful symbol of Christ as the Light of the world. First lit during the Easter Vigil, it stands as a reminder of Christ’s resurrection and the triumph of light over darkness. Traditionally made with a high percentage of beeswax, these Easter candles are often adorned with Christian symbols and may include incense. Each element carries deep meaning—the beeswax represents Christ’s purity, the incense recalls the spices used in His burial, and the markings reflect the wounds on His hands, feet, and side.

A variety of candles for Easter Vigil are available, each designed to reflect the beauty and tradition of this sacred season. The Eximious collection features top-tier, made-to-order Paschal candles with intricate craftsmanship, offering detailed designs that stand out as a centerpiece in Easter liturgy. The SculptWax collection showcases hand-cast, color-infused appliqués, creating a visually striking design that brings depth and dimension to the candle’s symbolism.

For those who prefer a more traditional approach, the Classic collection presents Paschal candles with simple yet elegant patterns, enriched by rich, vibrant colors that maintain the timeless beauty of the Easter celebration. Whether highly ornate or beautifully understated, each Paschal candle serves as a meaningful focal point in the sacred liturgy of Easter.
