Know before you buy
The spherical holder is designed to rotate freely within its base. You can simply tilt the ball to your desired angle to direct the smoke or ensure the ash falls safely onto your tray.
Yes, the holder features two distinct openings specifically sized to fit a variety of standard incense stick widths.
To maintain the piece, simply wipe it with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the finish.
Because the brass is left uncoated, it will naturally oxidize and develop a unique patina over time. This process is a natural characteristic of the material and will give your holder a one-of-a-kind appearance.
The solid brass construction provides a weighted, stable base. However, for very long or heavy incense sticks, we recommend ensuring the holder is placed on a flat, level surface to maintain balance.
