Kitchibe

Washi Crinkle Candle

$55.00

Fresh Crafted Paper

This fragrance evokes an image of freshly hand-crafted Japanese washi paper from a traditional mill nestled deep in the mountains and surrounded by a cedar forest. The ceramic holder, which has been created by celebrated designer Makoto Komatsu, can be used over again in any number of ways. 

The candle is made using only domestically-sourced & plant-based ingredients, which allows them to burn cleaner while also emphasizing the beautiful, delicate scents.
