The quiet dignity of Kōdō (the Japanese art of incense appreciation) takes the form of an agave plant emerging from a reflecting pool in this elegant burner. Designed to hold an incense stick, cone, or spiral, the Basin Incense Burner includes a specially designed pin to easily remove leftover incense from the holder. A side notch at its base lets you rest the pin on the side. Please note: While this incense holder is designed to accommodate many types of incense, there is a chance that sticks from certain brands may not fit the opening. For best results, use Tennen incense. About TennenFounded in 2001 by Ethan and Sarah Wessel, Tennen is a multidisciplinary architectural firm based in Phoenix, Arizona. After becoming dissatisfied with the lack of beautiful, functional incense burners in the US, the pair devised their own, eventually partnering with Kyoto-based makers to bring incense to their line as well. From buildings to aromas, Tennen projects find their inspiration in the culture and aesthetic sensibilities of Japan - especially honesty of materials, minimalist leanings, and an appreciation for the changing of the seasons.
