Right. The video was taken long time ago so the craftsman in the video seems already passed away, but his son has taken over the craftsmanship and creating the candle in the same way.
In the past, Japan had few opportunities to come into contact with Western culture, and vice versa. I think it's wonderful to be able to evaluate each other's culture and craftsmanship now.
@@naoyaandatsushi I agree. It's very interesting how peoples of the old made the same things with totally different designs. I really want to try some of these candles. What does the wax smell like?
@@glytch5 Actually I neither have tried it, it says no smoke nor drip. That shop is Omori candle and has web shop but not sure they can ship overseas. I saw few similar products in amazon.com, as Japanese "Haze" candle.
@@glytch5 Right. Even I can’t recommend easily, but the best way is to come to Japan, visit Uchiko town in Ehime prefecture and see all the products in Omori candle shop.

One thing I have to say is that the video was edited about 30 years ago, so we're not sure whether the master working in the video is still good and alive.
