Celebrate and honour the cultures of Australia's First Nations peoples with our handcrafted Aboriginal Flag and Torres Strait Islander Flag candles. Available individually or as a matching set, each candle is offered in three sizes to suit your home, school, workplace, parish, or community space.
Lovingly handcrafted by the Benedictine Sisters at Jamberoo Abbey in New South Wales, every candle is individually carved by hand. The Sisters describe their work simply:
"We do all our work quietly so that we create an atmosphere of prayer and peace throughout the abbey."
These candles are widely used by schools, Catholic and Anglican education communities, parishes, churches, and organisations as meaningful symbols during liturgies, prayer services, Welcome to Country and Acknowledgement of Country ceremonies, NAIDOC Week, Reconciliation Week, cultural events, and other occasions that recognise and celebrate Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures. They also make a thoughtful gift or display piece for homes and workplaces.
Because each candle is individually hand carved, no two are exactly alike. Slight variations in the carved flag details and finish are a natural part of the handcrafted process, making every candle a unique piece that reflects the care and craftsmanship invested in its creation.
