"Authentic German Candle Arches (Schwibbogen)  The first predecessor of Candle Arches, Schwibbogen was manufactured in 1726 from wrought iron. The German name Schwibbogen refers to a type of arch constructed in gothic times when an arch between two walls was called "Schwebebogen" (floating arch).  The look goes back to a tradition of miners, who hung their burning pit lamps semi-circularly on the pit entry hole before they started their last shift before Christmas. The Candle Arch expresses the longing of light by the miners who did not see very much daylight during their workdays.  100 % handmade - 100% quality made in Germany."      For more information please visit the website: www dot erzgebirgepalace dot com.
