This candle set features traditional warasouku candles, known for their bright, steady flame. The thicker, tapered wick — made from washi hand-wrapped in igusa — provides stability to the flame. This brings a calm, meditative feeling to any room. 

The candles are made with traditional ingredients, which are entirely plant-based. The mellow, yellow-colored candles are made with rice bran, and the powdered, grey-colored candles are made with nuts from the Japanese wax tree.

Each set comes with a brass wick trimmer you can use to snuff the flame and rid the wick of charred parts.

Select your preferred candle stand in either the brass or black colorway. 

Each candle has a burn time of approximately 50 minutes, so you can use it as an informal timer for meditation or focus activities.
