Warosoku Daiyo:
Daiyo is a well-known Japanese candle maker from Shiga Prefecture, founded in 1914. The company specializes in traditional, hand-crafted candles made from 100% natural plant wax, such as rice bran. Daiyo continues to preserve time-honored techniques, including hand-rolling wicks from washi paper, rush weeds, and silk fibers—a craft passed down through four generations of artisans. Their candles are valued for their stable, clean burn, minimal soot, and deep connection to nature.
