MANUAL

Manualia are the large metal or wood-carved candlesticks, which are placed at the entrance of the temple and have slots, for the faithful to light candles or lamps. The lighting of the candle is of particular importance in the Orthodox faith as in this way above all we glorify God who is the Light.

Also, by lighting the candle, we show our inner joy and the purity of our soul, but also pay honor to the saints of our faith, thus imitating the first Christians who lit candles at the graves of the martyrs.

The manuals are made of MDF or MASSIVE wood and aluminum. There are the simple manual ones and the absorbers which have an absorption system with a motor, a fire extinguishing system and glass (depending on the code).
