The beginning of the firm reaches the 2nd half of the 19th century, exactly 1866 when Feliks Mikesa come to on idea to make candles. And he was the fist one in Cracow. The factory after his death was either taken over or re-bought. However, the spirit and mastership of the craft was not lost. After 140 years the candles in Cracow's Old Town are made in just the same way as long time ago. Our customers have been faithful for years and we try to make for them even non-standard and individual orders. Our candles can be found in churches of all Poland, Slovakia, and North America, in missions in Africa, Brazil and Argentina.
They were many times in the altars during the pilgrimages of the pope John Paul II. The film producer, who made great national epics, also ordered them. They played among others in J. Hoffman`s "By fire and sword ", in A. Wajda`s "Pan Tadeusz", and "Zemsta" and lately in American-Italian production "The Pope John Paul II".
