Warousoku Set Refill

¥3,450

Refill the candles used with your Warousoku Set. These traditional warasouku candles, are known for their bright, steady flame. The thicker, tapered wick — made from washi hand-wrapped in igusa (rush grass) — provides stability to the flame. This brings a calm, meditative feeling to any room.

The candles are made with traditional ingredients, which are entirely plant-based. The mellow, yellow-colored candles are made with rice bran, and the powdered, grey-colored candles are made with nuts from the Japanese wax tree.

Each candle has a burn time of approximately 50 minutes, so you can use it as an informal timer for meditation or focus activities.

Care

To start using your candle, light it, wait for the wick to char, and then use the wick trimmers to shorten the wick to just 2cm, or 1/2 an inch tall. If your wick gets longer than 5cm or 1 inch, use the trimmers to snuff the candle by pinching the wick, and then break off the wick with the trimmers until it's 2cm/ 1/2 an inch again. Do not blow out the candle, only snuff.
Keep space surrounding the candle free of flammable objects.
Never leave a lit candle unattended.
Since organic materials are used in the candles, there's the possibility of sputtering. Keep the surroundings free of flammable objects in case of sparks.
Always use the candles with the base to catch melting wax.
The brass holder will heat up as the flame nears the base, so be sure to let it cool down before touching it.
POJ Studio does not bear responsibility for any damage or injury that might occur from the improper usage of flammable objects like candles or incense.
