For mystical reasons the Church set forth the 1917 Code of Canon Law, stating that candles must be “maxima parte” (>65%) of beeswax to be in keeping with the pure flesh of Christ and to enrich the essence of the Holy Sacrifice of The Mass.
We guarantee all our altar candles are made with 66% pure Canadian beeswax carefully selected for clean burning and dependable performance. The tube candles are specially designed to withstand candletubes pressure.
Altar candles are available with adjustable base “Code AJ “, or straight base “Code SO ” The adjustable candles fit all candleholders. To select the right candle you need, please refer to the specification table below, and contact us via product inquiry form to receive your quote.

VIRGO SACRATA is a Christian mission-driven online resource and shop inspired from the beauty of Catholic faith, tradition, and arts. Our mission is to “Restore All Things to Christ!”, in continuing the legacy of Pope St. Pius X under the patronage of the Blessed Virgin Mary. “Who is she that cometh forth as the morning rising, fair as the moon, bright as the sun, terrible as an army set in battle array?” O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to Thee.
