Know before you buy
This holder is specifically designed for use with incense cones. It is not compatible with incense sticks.
The piece is engineered so that smoke from the burning incense cone inside travels upward and exits through the chimney, creating a realistic effect.
While the ceramic may become warm to the touch during use, it is designed to safely house both tea lights and incense cones. We recommend placing it on a heat-resistant surface as a standard precaution.
Yes, each Amsterdam House comes with a starter set of 20 Palo Santo incense cones and one tea light so you can begin using it immediately.
Because the house is made of ceramic, you can gently wipe the interior with a damp cloth once the piece has completely cooled. Avoid using harsh chemicals to preserve the hand-painted exterior.
