Candle's Usage
Before the usage of electricity, the candle was the
common light source, before, and later in addition to,
the oil lamp. Due to local availability and the cost or
resources, for several centuries up to the 19th century
the candle was more common in northern Europe, and olive
oil lamps were more common in southern Europe and around
the Mediterranean sea. Candle makers were known as
chandlers.

The Origin of Santa Claus as motive of candle crafts
In the 4th century, a bishop in Turkey named Nicholas
was known for good deeds involving children. Because of
his holiness, Bishop Nicholas was sanctified by the
Catholic Church and came to be known as Saint Nicholas.
St. Nicholas is illustrated in medieval and renaissance
paintings as a tall, dignified and severe man. His feast
day on December 6 was celebrated throughout Europe until
about the 16th century. Afterwards, he continued to be
known in Protestant Holland.

The ancient inhabitants of northern Europe believed a
powerful pagan god, cloaked in red fur, galloped across
the winter sky. These myths combined with the legends of
the real life figure of Bishop Nicholas. Dutch children
would put shoes by the fireplace for St. Nicholas or
"Sinter Klaas" and leave food out for his horse. He'd
gallop on his horse between the rooftops and drop candy
down the chimneys into the children's shoes. Meanwhile,
his assistant, Black Peter, was the one who popped down
the chimneys to leave gifts behind.

Nicholas became renowned for his exceptional generosity,
especially to the very young. Many years later he became
known as Saint Nicholas, the patron saint of children.
As time went on, adults began to dress in the manner of
Saint Nicholas, dressed in Bishops vestments and
carrying a staff., to re-enact the kindness of the
saint. They went from house to house, asking if the
children who lived there had been well behaved. In
response to these visits, the children left their shoes
outside the doors of their houses so that next morning
they might find them filled with sweets and trinkets.
