The candle arch has been part of the Erzgebirge Christmas as a festival of lights for more than 250 years. The first candle arch was made by blacksmith Johann Teller in Johanngeorgenstadt as a wrought-iron work in 1726. The form of the arch goes back to the Erzgebirge mining tradition. For their last shift before Christmas, miners hung their lamps around the outline of the mine entrance, so the lights formed an arch. The cloud motif that can be seen on many of our candle arches and the patented inside illumination are distinct features of products from our workshop.

The candle arch Altseiffener Handwerk shows the picturesque village of Seiffen with its characteristic mountain church in the background. The focus is on two artistically carved solid wood figures that embody traditional craftsmanship: With a handcart full of wood and a return carry, they go about their work – right in front of a colour-stained house. A bench invites you to linger in the middle of a delicately sawn birch forest. The natural trees form an atmospheric contrast to the colourful roofs of the small village. The glare-free integrated LED lighting with USB connection creates a cosy atmosphere and lets the scene shine in a warm glow. Genuine handicraft from RATAGS – 100% original Erzgebirge, Made in Germany.
