{"product_id":"takazawa-stearinlys-tohaku-large-1pc","title":"Candle – Tohaku Large 1 pc.","description":"\u003cp data-end=\"155\" data-start=\"27\"\u003eHandmade candle, \u003cem\u003eTohaku\u003c\/em\u003e , made of sumac wax from the Japanese design brand Takazawa. The wick is handmade from dried reeds and Japanese paper (washi). The hollow core of the wick draws oxygen up from below, giving a strong, flickering flame that consumes more wax and creates light with high intensity. The flame is larger and clearer than that of other candle manufacturers and symbolizes the wisdom of ancestors and the beautiful relationship between humans and nature.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSince 1892, Takazawa Candle in Nanao, Japan, has been producing candles in harmony with nature. The candles are made from plant-based materials such as sumac wax, rice husks and rapeseed oil – a tradition that dates back to the 16th and 17th centuries, when beeswax was unknown to Japanese artisans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"775\" data-end=\"1058\"\u003eProduction of the candles starts early in the morning, where raw wax is melted in large cauldrons heated with local wood from the Noto Peninsula. The melted wax is then poured into wooden or metal molds, and the final shape of the candle is completed by hand with a small knife, ensuring each candle has a perfect finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1060\" data-end=\"1446\"\u003eThe city of Nanao has historically been an important center for candle production, with raw materials such as sumac wax and washi paper being brought to the city and distributed throughout Japan via the Kitamae ships. Today, Takazawa Candle is the only manufacturer to keep this over 100-year-old tradition alive, creating candles that provide warmth, atmosphere and a connection to Japan's culture and history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe candle, \u003cem\u003eTohaku,\u003c\/em\u003e pays homage to Tohaku Hasegawa's iconic painting \u003cem data-start=\"73\" data-end=\"96\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eThe Pine Trees Screen\u003c\/em\u003e , inspired by the landscape of Nanao City and the nature of his childhood.
