Making candles is an ancient craft. STHLM’s candle workshop on Södermalm, in Per-Anders Fogelström’s neighborhood and where Liljeholmens Ljusfabrik once stood, carries on the tradition.

Great care is taken to ensure that the candles feel genuine. When the candle mass is warm, the antique candles are carefully molded and shaped by hand.

The long burning time and beautiful flame are the result of the right mix of stearin, paraffin, wax and wick yarn.
