Description
Product History
How to Use
Dimensions
  • Handcrafted in the Saitama region: each layer of wax is applied by hand to form the candle forming a traditional Warosoku candle
  • The salt has purification properties that are historically embedded in Japanese Shinto Buddhist rituals and lifestyle.
  • The sea salt is gathered from the spring tide under a full moon when the moon's gravitational pulls the seawater
  • The wick is made of washi and  Igusa (the fibre used for tatami) so the flame a very bright light
  • The wax never drips: it evaporates

In Japan, there has been a belief since ancient times that the ebb and flow of the tide is related to life and death, and the  products are manufactured with a focus on the ebb and flow of the tide, which is full of vitality. When the earth, moon, and sun line up in a straight line, the gravitational forces combine to create the greatest tides, which is called a spring tide.

This Japanese candle is made with spring tide mixed with wax and is made with a wish for purification.

The “transience” that will eventually disappear is beautiful. Beauty of Warosoku's flame is that it has the same transience and integrity as cherry blossoms. People are moved when they discover the beauty of transience and integrity. Being moved by something creates room in your heart, and that room is spiritually fulfilling.
