Our Story
A light carried
across borders.
It began in 1912, in the Kresy borderlands of Eastern Europe, where our great-grandparents kept bees and made candles from their own wax. The war displaced the family, but not the knowledge. My grandparents settled in Lower Silesia and began again — a new apiary, and moulds they cast themselves, following what they remembered.
My grandparents settled in Lower Silesia and began again. A new apiary. New moulds. The same devotion to the craft.
In 2025, we revived the tradition. Each candle is made from pure beeswax, sourced from trusted apiaries, cast in moulds that have been in the family for decades. These candles have been in our home for as long as I can remember. At my grandmother's, at my parents' — the same forms, the same scent. I did not choose this craft. I grew up inside it.
