CERERIA ABELLA: A GREAT HISTORY BASED ON WAX
A story that begins with the determination of a strong and self confident woman. A true entrepreneur, Francesca Abella, who came to the profession in 1862 with her own manufactory and raised a prosperous business that today is an emblem of respect for a craft where candles have survived more than 160 years.

After more than 160 years, Cereria Abella, an emblematic establishment of Barcelona, has become an remarkable example of the trade.
A company that is running a 100% handmade production in Barcelona, that combines design and tradition and makes the candle to be something more than an object of decoration. A piece of design and functionality: created by their own hands, tailor made drafted or developed in collaborations of prestigious artists such as Jordi Labanda, Sybilla, Michelle Oka Doner, Toni Miró, Helena Rohner or Muma Soler.
