In prayer, in conversation, in self reflection, the candle subtly changes its expression in response, in feather like gentleness and ethereal warmth. The flame emanates an emotion not possible with electrical lights in our daily lives. “From Monologue to dialogue” is a principle theme at Daiyo, as we constantly contemplate the innate powers of the light of a candle flame, and how human relations are derived and created from it. We will continue making candles of the highest quality in order to pass down the closely-knit relationship between flame and humans that we have weaved since generations ago.
Daiyo was established in the Takashima county of Shiga Prefecture in 1914. The artisanship has been passed down across four generations, polished and refined as time passes. Shiga prefecture is home to Lake Biwa, the largest lake in Japan, and an abundance of natural resources. Consequently, Shiga has accumulated a wealth of knowledge on the coexistence of man and nature. Daiyo’s Japanese candles are 100% made from natural plant wax. Our principles of making candles from the blessings of nature have remained unchanged since our establishment more than a century ago.
At Daiyo, utilizing 100% local and natural plant wax, our artisans meticulously craft our candles by hand. By using a sustainable resource, our Japanese candles made for home-use do not produce smoke nor does the melted wax flow out of the candle. Our candles are practically odorless too. Environmental-friendliness is the greatest feature of Daiyo’s Japanese candles.
We are happy to introduce to you our lineup of candles and related items,
according to your purpose and desired materials.

size_dia88 x 210mm, 120 hrs., 1pc-pack
material_Rice bran wax, cotton
This is a plant-based candle 100% made from Japanese rice bran wax. Rice bran wax is harder than other waxes conventionally used for candles thus lasts substantially longer.
These rice bran wax candles are perfect for use in dinning scenes as they last for a very long time. Thanks to the natural material, the candles produce less soot and smell.
Block Candles come in three sizes:
Small
Medium
Large
Tips When Extinguishing the Flame:
Use a pair of tweezers to clip the wick and sink it into the pool of melted wax. Ensure the flame is extinguished before putting the wick upright again. This makes it possible to extinguish the flame without producing smoke!
