Antigua Cerería La Purísima
From Indagare Insider James Oseland: “Cerería La Purisima, a small candle concern located on a busy Centro Histórico street, is a vision of the way most Mexico City shops probably were a hundred years ago. I covet the handmade paraffin candles—they’re the variety used in churches and come in an array of sizes but only one color: a creamy shade of white. Their flames provide the loveliest illumination I’ve ever experienced in my home.”
