NANAO is the name of the city, the heart of the glorious countryside in which the makers behind Takazawa Candles live. Because they are surrounded by the sea and mountains, it is easy to find places that take them closer to nature.

There are five different Nanao candles, all with a motif of a different plant that grows in the Noto Peninsula. The candles are all named after a letter of the word ‘plant’.
