A sweet little Christmas caroler, hand-painted in wax and caught mid-song with her book open. She wears a red winter cloak over a green skirt, a cream bonnet trimmed in soft white, and a tumble of yellow hair, her cheeks pink from the cold. She's from JASCO's "Christmas Spirit" line of hand-painted candles — made to be displayed rather than burned, and this one never has been.

Vintage JASCO "Christmas Spirit" Caroler Candle — Hand-Painted Figural, c. 1970s–80s

Circa 1970s–1980s

Figural Holiday Candle


A hand-painted figural caroler candle from JASCO's "Christmas Spirit" line — a little carol-singer in a red cloak and green skirt, a cream bonnet and yellow hair, her songbook open in her hands. The original gold foil JASCO label survives on the base, marked "Christmas Spirit / Hand Painted Candles" and "Handcrafted in China." Figural candles like this were made to be displayed rather than burned.

She came to us from an estate in Louisburg, North Carolina. She carries her years honestly — a little gentle age-wear to the paint and label — but she's complete and cheerful, a charming vintage carol-singer for a mantel, a shelf, or a holiday vignette.

Materials Hand-painted paraffin wax
Care Purely decorative — best displayed rather than burned. Dust gently, and keep out of direct heat and sunlight, which can soften or fade the wax.

Some Christmas decorations are worth keeping simply because they're so full of character, and this little caroler is one of them. She's a figural candle from JASCO's "Christmas Spirit" line, hand-painted in wax and posed mid-carol with her songbook open in her hands. She's dressed for a snowy evening — a red winter cloak over a green skirt, a cream bonnet edged in soft white, yellow hair, and rosy, cold-pinched cheeks. Turn her over and you'll find the original gold foil JASCO label, printed with the "Christmas Spirit" name and the note that she was handcrafted in China. Candles like this were made to be seen rather than lit, and this one never has been — the wick is crisp and intact. She's best kept just that way: a small, storybook carol-singer for a mantel, a shelf, or a holiday vignette. She came to us from an estate in Louisburg, North Carolina. She carries her years honestly, with a little gentle age-wear to the paint and the label, and she's complete, cheerful, and full of old-fashioned Christmas charm.
