With a beautiful aesthetic and a burn time of over 130 minutes, the Nanao series candles are the perfect choice for dinners and entertaining. They are made of 100% sumac wax with all-natural ingredients making them not only beautiful but very eco-friendly. Nanao is the name of the city where Takazawa Candle is located, surrounded by sea and mountains. There are five different designs, each with a motif based on a different plant that grows in the Noto Peninsula.
Japanese candles are made of plant-based wax that generates less soot than other types of candles. Wicks are made by carefully wrapping dried rushes one by one around a core of Japanese paper. This process creates a cavity that extends to the top of the wick; lighting the wick incorporates air into the cavity, which in turn sucks the flame inward and causes it to sway back and forth. The unique phenomenon of a flame that flickers even without the presence of wind also means that the candle will not easily go out.
