OMORI CANDLE
The OMORI family have been making warosoku for six generations in Uchiko, a charming, historic town nestled amongst deep forests at the heart of Ehime Prefecture. During the 1800’s, Uchiko was a major producer of warosoku used around Japan. Though many workshops have disappeared with the introduction of mass produced candles, warosoku remain an important part of Japanese culture. Today, Ehime’s warosoku tradition is carried on by 6th-generation craftsman Taro OMORI and his son, Ryotaro, at OMORI Warosoku, the last remaining traditional Japanese candle shop in Ehime
