Features and Types
The Cereria Di Giorgio catalog available on L'Arcolaio is divided into five product families, each with declared measurements and packaging designed for multiple arrangements.
Taper Candles
These are the classic candelabra candles, with a base diameter of 2.2 cm. Available in heights of 25 cm, 30 cm, and 40 cm, they are sold in packs of 6 or 10 pieces. Colors in the catalog include: cream, ivory, lavender, and dove gray — perfect for a wedding centerpiece or a Christmas table.
Cylindrical Candles
Cylindrical candles have a stout and stable body. In the catalog, you'll find them in three main diameters — Ø 4 cm, Ø 5 cm, Ø 6 cm, and Ø 7 cm — with heights ranging from 7 cm to 25 cm. Packs range from 2 to 12 pieces. Colors cover both neutral shades (white, ivory, silver) and trendy tones:dusty blue,dusty pink,wisteria lavender,green olive,kiwiandredfor Christmas occasions. For example, Ø 7 cm H 25 cm red candles are ideal as a strong decorative element on a console or fireplace.
Sphere Candles
Cereria Di Giorgio sphere candles are available in Ø 6 cm (pack of 6 pieces) in powder pink and ivory, and in Ø 10 cm (pack of 4 pieces) in cream. They are among the most sought-after proposals for baptism and communion tables, where the soft profile adapts to both romantic and minimalist decorations.
Floating Candles
Designed for vases, bowls, and decorative fountains, Cereria Di Giorgio floating candles come in two sizes: Ø 4.5 cm H 2.7 cm (packs of 20 pieces) and Ø 7 cm H 1.5 cm (packs of 12 pieces). Available colors include burgundy, red, dark pink, navy blue, lavender, and cream. They are widely used for wedding centerpieces: a glass bowl with a few floating candles creates an effortless scenic effect.
Tealights and Garden Torches
Cereria Di Giorgio tealights (Ø 3.9 cm H 2.7 cm) are sold in packs of 50 pieces with a clear cup — a practical solution for those who need to illuminate long tables or reception corridors. Terracotta garden torches (Ø 17.5 cm) complete the range for summer outdoor setups.
How to Choose the Right Candle
For a Wedding or Baptism Centerpiece
If you're looking for an elegant and coordinated effect, choose cylindrical candles all of the same diameter but in different heights (e.g., Ø 7 cm H 10 cm + Ø 7 cm H 20 cm) or combine floating candles in glass bowls. Cream, ivory, and dusty pink colors are best suited for neutral ceremony palettes. For baptisms or communions, powder pink or cream sphere candles add a delicate touch without being excessive. By pairing them withMaxtris confettiof the same color, you'll achieve a consistent table coordinated from the favor to the decoration.
For Christmas Decorations
Cereria Di Giorgio's red and silver cylindrical candles are the most requested for the Christmas season. TheRed Cylindrical Candle Ø 7 cm H 25 cm(pack of 2 pieces) is a classic choice for the fireplace or sideboard. Cream or ivory taper candles, on the other hand, pair well with neutral Nordic-style decorations. For the Christmas table, consider tealights in packs of 50: you can arrange them along the entire table for a diffused and manageable luminous effect.
For Summer Outdoor Arrangements
Cereria Di Giorgio's terracotta garden torches are the right choice for illuminating terraces and gardens without using electricity. The red wax inside the Ø 17.5 cm terracotta container burns outdoors even with a bit of wind.
Regarding Package Selection
Cereria Di Giorgio always sells in multiples (from 2 to 50 pieces per size). Before purchasing, calculate how many candles you actually need: for a table of 10 people with 2 cylindrical candles per couple, 4–6 are enough; for a setup of 20 tables with floating candles, a pack of 20 pieces per type is the starting point. Here onL'Arcolaioyou'll find the quantities already indicated in the title of each product, so you won't have any surprises.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Are Cereria Di Giorgio candles scented?
From the available catalog, the range includes both unscented candles (cylindrical, taper, sphere, classic floating) and scented variants — taper candles and cylindrical candles in the lavender shade, for example, belong to this line. Check the product sheet for confirmation.
What colors are available for cylindrical candles?
Cereria Di Giorgio cylindrical candles cover a wide palette: white, ivory, silver, red, navy blue, dusty blue, dusty pink, wisteria lavender, green olive, kiwi, and yellow. Some shades are only available in certain formats (diameter and height): check availability in the product grid above.
Can I use Cereria Di Giorgio floating candles for an outdoor ceremony?
Floating candles are designed for water containers (vases, bowls, fountains). For outdoor use, it is preferable to use them in enclosed containers or those sheltered from the wind. For outdoor lighting, terracotta garden torches are the most robust solution offered by Cereria Di Giorgio.
Are tealights sold with or without a candle holder?
Cereria Di Giorgio tealights (pack of 50 pieces) include the clear plastic cup, so they are ready for use. They do not require an additional tealight holder, although pairing them with a decorative candle holder enhances the visual effect.
Is Cereria Di Giorgio suitable for wedding favors?
Cereria Di Giorgio candles are not strictly wedding favors, but they are widely used as a decorative element in ceremonies. To complete the setup of your event, we recommend pairing them withMaxtris confetti: the choice of coordinated colors between candles and confetti is one of the details our customers appreciate most when organizing tables and favor bags.
At L'Arcolaio, we select Cereria Di Giorgio lines primarily for practicality: clear formats, declared measurements, and packaging suitable for both private individuals and event planners. If you are organizing a ceremony and want a complete coordinated look, also explore Maxtris confetti to perfectly match colors and palettes.
