With artist Jette Frölich’s nostalgic and masterful paper cuttings, Holmegaard Christmas invites you to take a look through the windows of a traditional old bakery. Admire Jette Frölich’s original and artistic universe up close on the beautiful advent candle, and count down to Christmas in an elegant and practical way. The 25-cm high and highly decorative candle is shaped from fully refined special wax and burns beautifully throughout the month of December. The motif of the 2023 advent candle is based on Jette Frölich’s nostalgic Christmas universe and features two window sections, one with a girl entering the bakery through the door, and the other with a boy, standing outside curiously peeking through the window. Between the two beautifully decorated windows, the numbers 1-24 travel down the candle.
The motif universe on the advent candle is a variation of the motifs that adorn the entire Holmegaard Christmas 2023 series. The motifs are based on reflections on the magic of Christmas, and beautifully convey children's love of Christmas and the sense of anticipation for the big day.

Holmegaard Christmas is a Christmas series that has been reflecting the magic of Christmas for many years. Back in 1981, Jette Frölich created her characteristic paper cuttings for Holmegaard’s Christmas bottle for the first time. And four decades later, Holmegaard’s Christmas collection has become a much-loved collector’s item for many Christmas fans. This is largely because Jette Frölich masterfully manages to translate Christmas’ key messages such as caring, generosity and meticulous preparations into simple motifs full of Christmas spirit. She masterfully illustrates the instantly recognisable feelings that live in us on a daily basis and are reinforced during the holidays.
Together with the Advent wreath and the Advent candle, Christmas cosiness is one of December’s established traditions. The same applies to Holmegaard Christmas, which transforms the holiday into paper cuttings on glass jars with motifs taken from our shared Christmas stories and Nordic Christmas traditions. Everything that makes Christmas so special.
Childhood memories and the joy of anticipation are almost the essence of Christmas. Add to this the many cosy family traditions and the joy of ending the year and celebrating with the people we love the most. It is precisely this joy and excitement that inspires Jette Frölich to encapsulate the Nordic Christmas – and everything that makes it unique – in her distinctive, elegant lines. Holmegaard Christmas brings out a new Christmas motif every year, and for many, the series has become a regular part of Christmas – both as hist/hostess gifts, Christmas gifts and as a cosy addition to the Christmas decorations.
