Brass "shokudai" candle stand and stone plate
Box of 10 10-minute candles
Box of 10 20-minute candles

We use these candles as a timer for meditation and other mindful activities, allowing us to keep our devices turned off and our minds focused in the present moment.

The original brass candle stand is handmade by a workshop in Tsubame-sanjo, Niigata prefecture, and is designed to allow the candles to burn completely.

The candles are made from a precious natural Japanese wax called "mokuro", which is pressed from the drupes of the Japanese "haze" tree.

3 unique features of these candles:

Designed to burn for exactly 10, 20, or 30 minutes, making it a great alternative to a phone timer.
Made by the only maker in Japan that is carrying on the traditional wax-making method (read more below)
Burns cleanly and completely, leaving only a bit of ash behind.

Made in Shimabara, Nagasaki

Honda Mokuro is wax and candle maker in the seaside town of Shimabara, Nagasaki Prefecture.

Here, they handle every single process of wax and candle making, in-house:

Planting "haze" trees
Harvesting the drupes of the trees
Processing and extracting the natural wax from those drupes
Making traditional Japanese candles.

In addition, they are now the only workshop left in all of Japan that makes "mokuro" wax with the traditional press method, extracting the wax without the use of chemicals.

Although the yield is only half of what it could be if they used chemicals, they do it this way because they believe in the importance of preserving tradition.

Honda Mokuro's candles are special and can't be found anywhere else in Japan. We are honored to collaborate with them to present these original miniature-sized Japanese candles.
