An egg?!
Are these really Japanese candles??
These are products made through a collaboration between Matsumoto Shoten, a Japanese candle maker in Nishinomiya, and the student editorial team of Nishinomiya web media “Nishimag”!
It will be held on Sunday, March 3 at the MUJI Open MUJI space in Gardens.
They’ll also be holding a workshop, where you can try painting Japanese candles.

Turning Japanese candles into something Scandinavian-inspired really feels like something only students would come up with. You can apparently try painting these egg-shaped ones too.

Plain Japanese candle: 800 yen
Egg-shaped Japanese candle: 2000 yen

Lastly
“Matsumoto Shoten” in Imazu, Nishinomiya City, is one of only about 30 Japanese candle shops nationwide, and it manufactures and sells Japanese candles designated as a traditional craft of Hyogo Prefecture. It’s a company with an incredible history, having been officially appointed by the Himeji Domain during the Edo period.
