Oberflacht (/'oːbɐflaχt/) is an ancient burial ground dating back to the 6th century AD, where the oldest conserved beeswax candles north of the Alps were found.
Oberflacht is dedicated to handcrafting one-of-a-kind pieces: modern beeswax candles, unexpected in design and rich in colour, created using the most traditional techniques.
Oberflacht fuses our love for unique, contemporary objects rooted in exceptional craftsmanship and traditional processes. We love beeswax, its natural smell, and the way it changes texture as it is handcrafted into candles. We cherish techniques of the past and strive to bring authenticity to our creations. Our candles create a visual statement yet remain everyday functional objects, bringing light and casting a feeling that soothes the mind and caresses the soul.
