Cast Iron Candle Holder - Round Japanese Handkerchief Woodsy scent of hinoki helpsThis is a cast iron candle holder specifically made for warsoku (traditional Japanese candles). The spike in the center securely holds the short (4) warsoku that we offer. (For the medium (6) warsoku use the Cast Iron Candle Holder with Handle.) Weighing 11. 4oz, it feels heavy for its size. The surface looks rough, but is actually smooth to the touch. The bottom of the candle holder is concave to prevent overheating of the surface it sits on.
