Stunning, all natural plant based pillar candles from Warosoko Daiyo.
Handcrafted in Japan, made from 100% rice bran wax with lead-free, organic cotton wick. Rice bran wax is harder than other waxes conventionally used for candles thus lasts substantially longer.
Block Candles come in three sizes:
Small : 65mm x 100mm, 48 hrs
Medium : 73mm x 165mm, 96 hrs
Large : 88mm x 210mm, 120 hrs
On lighting a flame
"In prayer, in conversation, in self reflection, the candle subtly changes its expression in response, in feather like gentleness and ethereal warmth. The flame emanates an emotion not possible with electrical lights in our daily lives. “From Monologue to dialogue” is a principle theme at Daiyo, as we constantly contemplate the innate powers of the light of a candle flame, and how human relations are derived and created from it. We will continue making candles of the highest quality in order to pass down the closely-knit relationship between flame and humans that we have weaved since generations ago". -Daiyo
On first burn
Keep your candle burning until the melted wax reaches the full diameter of the candle, wax has a burn memory and will only melt to the memory of the first burn. If you extinguish your candle on its first burn before the wax melt reaches the edges of the candle, when you relight your candle it will 'remember' the melt diameter from the first burn and may form a tunnel around the wick and the edges of the candle will not melt.
About Daiyo
Daiyo was established in the Takashima county of Shiga Prefecture in 1914. The artisanship has been passed down across four generations, polished and refined as time passes. Shiga prefecture is home to Lake Biwa, the largest lake in Japan, and an abundance of natural resources. Consequently, Shiga has accumulated a wealth of knowledge on the coexistence of man and nature. Daiyo’s Japanese candles are 100% made from natural plant wax. Daiyo's principles of making candles from the blessings of nature have remained unchanged since their establishment more than a century ago.
