News & stories from Candora.
Notes from the studio — what we're making, the materials we love, and the people behind Candora. From the quiet rhythm of pulling Dó paper in the villages to developing signature scents and welcome gifts for hotels, these pages capture the stories behind the work.
This is where we share our studio notes from Da Nang. We write about the craft of handmade Dó paper, the shaping of scented wax and candles, and the collaborations we develop with hotels, institutions, and cultural spaces across Vietnam. The journal offers a window into how traditional materials are reimagined for contemporary use.
Expect stories about materials and process, behind-the-scenes glimpses of how a piece is made in our studio, and occasional notes on Vietnamese craft heritage. We publish when there is something worth sharing — a new collection, an insight from the making process, or a partnership that highlights the value of authentic craft.
Above all, these stories connect the past with the present. They celebrate the artisans who keep traditional techniques alive and the clients who choose meaningful objects over disposable ones.
