Communion Girl
The memory of a day you never forget
First communion is one of those days you remember all your life. The Communion Girl is made to accompany it: a sculptural candle of a little girl with her hands joined in prayer, modelled in soy wax in ivory and peach tones, surrounded by flowers. A serene, delicate piece, made as a keepsake for the guests and as a detail the family will keep long after the celebration ends.
The figure conveys exactly what such a day calls for: quiet devotion, tenderness and a calm joy. The small heart in relief and the flowers around her soften the whole and take away any stiffness, so it feels close and warm. A detail that honours the meaning of the moment without giving up on sweetness.
How the Communion Girl is made
Each figure is made by hand from soy wax. The wax is melted, tuned in its ivory and peach tones and poured into the mould that shapes the girl, her dress and the flowers at the base. After the rest the wax needs to set, we unmould it carefully to preserve the details — the face, the joined hands, the folds of the dress — and finish it by hand until it has a soft, matte look.
It’s patient work, because the fine reliefs call for a steady hand and time. The result is a piece with a character of its own, where you can see the hand of whoever makes it.
A little piece of Mallorca
The Communion Girl is born in Mallorca, an island where family celebrations — communions, weddings, christenings — are lived with calm and a love of detail. Working from here gives each piece an unhurried pace: nothing is rushed, everything passes through the hands.
When this figure accompanies a communion, it carries that handmade origin and the island’s serenity with it. For families celebrating in Mallorca, it’s also a way to tie a little piece of the island forever to such an important memory.
How to display her
The Communion Girl looks lovely on the celebration table, as part of the decoration, and does her job just as well as a keepsake for each guest. Afterwards, she stays as a piece of sentimental value: at home, beside the communion photo or among the family mementos. For her delicacy, many families choose to keep her intact.
Who she’s for
She’s the detail made for first communions, especially of a girl, and also works as a keepsake at confirmations or other religious celebrations. A much-loved gift for godparents, grandparents and close family, and a lovely way to thank each guest for sharing the day.
Made to order, just as you like it
She’s prepared by hand and to order, so she adapts to your celebration. We personalise the label with the name and date, tune the tones of the flowers and the presentation — bag, ribbon and card — to match the style of your communion. For orders of several units we offer special terms. Write to us with the name, the date and the number of pieces and we’ll arrange it with you.
A symbol you recognise at once
The image of a girl with her hands joined captures the spirit of first communion: the innocence, the quiet devotion and the excitement of a day prepared with care for weeks. That’s why it works so well as a keepsake: whoever receives it knows straight away which celebration it speaks of, and links it forever to a date and a particular person.
She’s modelled in soy wax, of plant origin and a calm flame; even so, for her sentimental value, she’s one of the pieces most families choose to keep just as she is, among the communion mementos. Every celebration is different, and this detail understands that: in tones and presentation she adapts to the style you’ve chosen, from the most classic to the most contemporary. And if you want a consistent look across the whole table, she pairs beautifully with the rest of our details made for first communions. In short, a keepsake that honours the meaning of the day and, at the same time, feels close and full of tenderness.
