This candle egg is surrounded by dancing tendrils - reminiscent of the sprouting power of spring! The sun smiles, life awakens. Nature returns from hibernation, and we humans also feel vitality and creative power. We searched long and hard to find these special Easter eggs with natural, magical symbols for you - and we pour and color them with great joy in our candle manufactory.
Behind this colorful egg lies a millennia-old tradition - and not just at Easter :) Because eggs are a strong symbol of new life, fertility and rebirth. After all, behind the hard shell is a young life, ready to hatch, protected by that very shell. In our case, symbolized by the light of the candle flame. These eggs are made of rapeseed wax, making them vegan - though not edible :)

- All handmade – including the color! The delivered candle may differ slightly in color from our sample images. This is due to the varying color reproduction of different monitors and the fact that we still mix our colors by hand and feel, so that they glow beautifully :)
The cult of colorful eggs, by the way, is older than you might think: Already in ancient Greece, they were given and decorated at the equinox as a symbol for the start of a new year. Deceased people were given them in their graves as a symbol of resurrection. The egg – the origin of the world – so it was said in ancient Egypt. In magical use, the egg stood for powerful protective effect and was walled into houses and bridges – and, of course, eaten.
In any case, the egg carries the power of the new within it, the magic of bringing this into the world. And that fits perfectly with the transformative power of a candle flame – not just at Easter!
About rapeseed wax: Rapeseed wax is the hardened oil of the rapeseed plant, which grows all over Europe. It is of vegetable origin, GMO-free and is produced in Germany. Our candles are poured by hand – minor deviations are a sign of quality :)
