Paschal candle Passiflora 2025
The first Spanish missionaries found a plant with a structure in the flower in which they read a deeper meaning.
The five sepals and the five petals were a reference to ten apostles, not counting Judas and Peter. The five stamens symbolized the wounds of Christ and the three styles of the pistil looked like the nails with which Christ was nailed to the cross. The double corolla, visible as a ring of pointed protrusions in the flower, referred to the crown of thorns.The tendrils with which the plant climbs looked like whips and the hand-shaped leaves were the grasping hands of the soldiers who gambled for His possessions.
The whole represented the death of Christ and so the plant was called passion flower, Passiflora in Latin.

All wax ornaments are designed by Mrs Hella van der Zanden. We have a broad collection of designs, however, it is also possible to send your own design. If you have an idea that needs to be worked out, we can do that for you. Naturally, this is only possible when ordering larger quantities . If that is not the case we can still be of service to you with the existing designs.
Each year we create a restricted assortment of existing ornaments that come with a year band. Each ornament consists of coloured paraffin. In an ornament up to 6 (sometimes even 10) different colours can be used. In this way each ornament made is absolutely unique! The finishing touch is done with gold or silver paint.
If you are interested you can e-mail or call us. Our entire staff speaks English!
