# Botanical-Infused Soy Candles Tokyn Candles are Handmade and Inspired by Japanese Culture By Kalin Ned | Published 2018-02-26 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/botanic-soy-candles References: [etsy](https://www.etsy.com/shop/tokyncandles?utm_medium=editorial_internal&utm_source=etsy_blog&utm_campaign=featured_shop&utm_content=tokyn_candles) The values that are embraced by Tokyn Candles, a Brooklyn-based company which manufactures handcrafted soy candles, are in line with the notion of musubi— "a Japanese form of knotting that treasures the unity and togetherness between people." From scents of Fraser Fir and Birch Bark to aromas of Forest Mist and Shiogama Seasalt, Tokyn's soy candles are hand-poured and carry a relaxation-enhancing and memorable odor. The [unique botanical collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cyprs-21-indigo) incorporates natural items, such as moss, sand, corals and more, that are carefully arranged and encased in clear gel. Thus, the exterior of the [hand-poured soy candles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/homecoming-candles) is not only mesmerizing, but is also beautifully illuminated when the wick is burning, "creating an elegant and ethereal glow."
