Japanese candles
Traditional Japanese candles, also known as "wa-rousoku," have been used in Japan for centuries for a variety of purposes, including religious ceremonies, meditation, and home lighting. These candles are made from natural materials such as washi paper coated with wax made from vegetable oil or beeswax.
Making traditional Japanese candles is a meticulous process that requires craftsmanship. The wax is poured onto the washi paper and then hand rolled to create the distinctive shape. The candles are then left to dry for several days before they are ready to use.
In addition to their functional use, traditional Japanese candles are also valued for their aesthetic qualities.
