Korean Janchi Celebration Candles

£10 £7


A set of six celebration candles in the shape of the character 福, meaning ‘fortune’. Pop atop a celebration cake and turn up Kim Wan-Sun on the stereo: let’s get this janchi (party) started!

The character 福 accompanies Koreans throughout their lives. When babies are born, Koreans often embroider 福 on their bedding, wishing for a blessed future. They engrave 福 on rice bowls, to reflect on their blessings at mealtimes. And it’s common to wear clothes and accessories with patterns that represent 福.

Made in China and designed in Korea by hip designers OIMU.
