The Story of the Christmas Pig

In Scandinavian tradition, the Christmas pig, or 'julegris', is a beloved symbol of good fortune and festive cheer. Maileg has captured this spirit beautifully in a candle holder that feels both timeless and full of character. Each detail, from the sweet, simple expression to the softly painted rose finish, is designed to evoke a sense of nostalgia and wonder. This isn't just a decoration; it's a small character ready to become part of your family's treasured Christmas story.

Imagine the gentle light from a single candle flickering on its back, casting dancing shadows as you enjoy a quiet moment with a warm drink. Place it on your windowsill, a festive sideboard, or as a charming accent on a small table. We invite you to mix and match with other colours from the collection to create your own delightful family of festive pigs, spreading warmth and light throughout your home.
