“This life brought light to humanity. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overwhelmed it”
(John 1:1-5)
The use of wax in crafting religious items led to the founding of Cereria Giovanelli in 1780. It became a key supplier of lamps, candles, and votive and liturgical candles for the parishes of the Giudicarie district and surrounding valleys.
We specialise in the religious sector, a natural habitat where, beyond the symbolism and use during liturgy, the spirituality of an ancient craft is revived. This craft still retains the primal charm that connects humans to light and, through it, to religion.
A religion that has evolved and adapts its rituals to the needs and new local and social habits of its faithful: attention to all these aspects completes the work of Cereria, showcasing expertise in creating lamps, candles, and votive candles suitable for Church functions and environments. Their practicality and quality ensure long-lasting durability and excellent burn performance.
