Jaya Karnataka Candles

Jaya Karnataka Candles is tucked away at 41336 on Chimni Road in Rabrindranath Tagore Nagar. We are right in Thimmiah Garden, which is a nice spot once you find it. Most people know we are next to the Orchid Hotel. The shop always smells like wax and sometimes the different scents we use for the special orders. It is a messy business, to be honest. There is usually wax dripped on the floor and the tables are worn down from years of use. We spend our days melting things down and pouring them into molds of all shapes and sizes. It gets quite hot in the back room when the heat is on. We have boxes piled up near the door ready to go out. The garden area outside is a bit quieter than the main road, but you still hear the city noise. We have been making candles here for a long time. People come in looking for something for a house or a ceremony. We don't have a fancy showroom, just the shelves where the finished ones sit to cool off. Sometimes a stray cat wanders in from the garden. We just keep working through the piles of wick and the heavy bags of raw wax. It is physical work and our hands are usually a bit sticky by the time we close up for the evening. Chimni Road is our home and we like the neighbors around here. It is just a small local place making something people need.
