WA:IT launches TŌKA, the scented collectible candle designed by Piero Lissoni
01
Each TŌKA candle epitomizes a singular masterpiece of olfactory design. From the handcrafted terracotta container, meticulously fashioned and glazed by Piero Lissoni, to the exquisite architecture of WA:IT's fragrance, TŌKA invites you on a sensory voyage to the Mediterranean coasts with notes of neroli and wild fig leaves.
The act of igniting a TŌKA candle is an intimate olfactory expedition.

The tactile experience of the intentionally textured surface of the crackle finished vessel, coupled with the warm radiance of the flame, seamlessly intertwines with the fragrance, evoking an elixir for the olfactory senses. From floral delicacies to the sensuality of fig, indulging in TŌKA is akin to immersing oneself in a realm of dreams, envisioning sunsets on the shores of southern Italy and being enveloped by a captivating mystique.
03
Sustainability and Italian craftsmanship are at the heart of TŌKA's design ethos: from the handcrafted terracotta vessels designed by Piero Lissoni and masterfully executed by ceramist Antonio Bonaldi, to the utilization of innovative research and development techniques resulting in sustainable vegetable wax, minimizing environmental impact while harnessing natural resources responsibly.

Rooted in the Japanese WABI SABI aesthetic, embodying acceptance, impermanence, and the beauty of life's imperfections, TŌKA's flame ignites emotions, casting a luminous glow. Once the candle has been extinguished, the lingering essence of TŌKA endures in memory, while its precious ceramic vessel, bearing Piero Lissoni's signature, finds new life through reuse.
