Time Bell Candle Holder
A brass candle holder that marks time with sound.
Insert the brass pins into the candle at any height. As the candle burns down, each pin drops into the base and rings like a small bell, a quiet reminder of the time that has passed. Its clear, lingering tone recalls a singing bowl, making it a natural companion for meditation, reading, or a slow evening at home.
The candle sits on a brass spike at the center of the base. Handcrafted by Nousaku in Takaoka, Japan, a city known for more than 400 years of metal casting. The solid brass is left uncoated, so it develops a warm patina with use.
Includes the candle holder, three brass pins, a candle chipper, and two beeswax candles.
Nousaku
Nousaku was founded in 1916, inheriting a traditional casting technique that has been passed down through multiple generations for over 400 years in Takaoka, Japan. Originally manufacturing Buddhist ritual objects, items for tea ceremony and flower vases made of brass and bronze, they have recently started to manufacture tableware, incense holders and many other interior design items. Nousaku makes consistently high-quality brass and bronze products that marry its casting techniques inherited from the days of old with a modern design.
