Being of Uchiko’s prosperous past, including many natural wax manufacturing industries, Uchiko is still home, beside its Natural Wax Museum, of the latest Natural Wax candle Specialist with the Omori Candle Shop. Belonging to the Omori family with Mr. Taro Omori (6th generation craftsman) and his son, Ryotaro Omori (7th generation), the Omori family is crafting day after day gorgeous natural wax candles that unlike petroleum candles does not emit disturbing black smokes but offers cleaner burning without toxins, carcinogens or pollutants usually triggering allergies. Also, natural wax candles last generally from 30% to 50% longer than regular paraffin based candles. Here as well the process of making Natural Wax candle is a long and fascinating one where craftsmen have to scoop up 40 to 45℃ molten wax with bare hands, rubbing it around the wick and letting it dry, the candles slowly grow larger.
