Candlemakers
Plate M-7 · 39 stores · curated ORBIS register
Barcelona's Cereria Subirà makes paraffin and beeswax candles, continuing the chandlery business founded in the city in 1761. Monica's Brides & Touch of Glitz Flowers includes candles in its Channelview gift selection, alongside the wedding flowers and houseplants offered by the business. Dayton's Flowers & Flames Gift Shop also combines candles with flowers and gifts, providing another shop within this broader candle-shopping selection.
What makes great candlemakers?
This plate lists 39 shops in 18 countries.
Ask what the wax is: ask what the candle is poured from and how the wick is made, then compare two candles side by side.
Ask for the burn time: compare candles by stated burn time and weight rather than by the size of the jar.
Ask how it travels: candles can soften in heat, so ask how the shop packs them for a journey.
