Lights and Lanterns
German Christmas Candle Holders and Candle Arches
Shimmering candlelight and the whimsical glow of a traditional lantern can help add that magical festive feeling to your home — and the workshops tucked away in the mountain region of Germany's Erzgebirge can offer just that. Handmade and deeply imbued with local culture and history, our German Christmas candle holders, such as Müller’s Christmas caroler and church candle holder, are ideal for adding a taste of Erzgebirge’s folk art tradition into your home.
Our German Christmas candle arches are also a fantastic way to add twinkling lights to your festive display. These have a rich history, dating back to when Erzgebirge was the centre of the world’s mining industry, as the candle arch represented the movement of the sun across the sky, which the miners missed while working. It is thought that these candle arches became more ornate and special during their Christmas shifts, and so the Erzgebirge candle arch was born.
