Candle stand sold separately. Pairs well with theMedium KomaCandle Stand.

Box of five, 4 in candles, 110 min burn time | Sumac wax, dried reed, and washi paper | Made in Iwate, Japan

Takazawa was established in 1892 and is one of the oldest candle makers in Japan. The candles produced by Takazawa use techniques and materials that have not changed since the 16th century.
