Founded in 1761, this is the oldest retail store in Barcelona. The wooden interior has remained unscathed for more than 200 years. This store sells all manner of candles. Good luck. sure you could order one online from anywhere

Answer 2

A Walking Guide of Barcelona describes the following



Exit the Plaça de Rei on its southern side. Turn left into the steep Baixada de Llibretería. At no. 7 you will see the beautiful candle shop the Cereria Subira, the oldest continuous retail establishment in Barcelona."
