About our artisanal manufacturing…

At Las Velas de Mariano we preserve manufacturing methods from the 18th century, which is why we make unique pieces taken care of down to the smallest detail. In our manufacturing we only use pure waxes, and we carry out a ritualization and purification process before starting to make candles and candles. In addition, we always seek to work with noble materials of natural origin to maintain the purity of our product. We use special alloy molds, just as the ancient alchemists did, and our wicks are 100% natural cotton braids with specific thicknesses for the correct combustion of each candle.

Many of our candles also come seasoned with herbs, plants and salts. Some of them are visible from the outside, but others we only see when the wax has already been consumed. These added ingredients are special mixtures used as remedies in ancient times, and are different for each request.

For us, candles are dreams, concerns, desires and needs of many people, which is why we continue to work with the best materials to be able to offer effective self-help products within everyone's reach.
