Made from Japanese “Nambu-tetsu” cast iron, this Takazawa candle stand is designed for all kinds of candles, but is particularly suited for use with the Warousoku natural wax candles made by Takazawa in Japan.
Handcrafted in Iwate Prefecture by Japanese craftsman Hisao Iwashimizu. The design is simple, beautiful, and stable.
Candles sold separately.
Craftsmanship:
Takazawa Candle is committed to preserving the wisdom and ingenuity of traditional Japanese candle making for generations.
To make a traditional Japanese candle, they start with the candle wick. The wick is made by winding dried grass around hollow cord of Washi (Japanese paper).
The hollow core of the wick allows oxygen to be drawn up from the bottom so that the flame consumes more melted wax, thus increasing the combustion power and creating a powerful flame.
Next they create the candle shape by poring melted wax into wooden or metallic molds. After the wax has set, they remove it from the mold and finish shaping by hand with a small knife.
They begin the day at Takazawa Candle factory at 5AM in winter and 6AM in summer by lighting fired under the kettles to melt the wax. They burn firewood, timber that has been thinned from nearby forests on the Noto penisula. They use three big pots and small kettles. They put the raw wax into into each pot depending on which type of candles they’ll be making that day.
