A brass incense holder that reflects gentle light, blending with the space
An incense holder characterized by the calm texture unique to brass. The form where two brass plates intersect draws curves that evoke natural flow and movement. Its appearance changes depending on the viewing angle, quietly harmonizing with the fragrance and gently blending into the space.
"APFR (Apotheke Fragrance)" creates products that use carefully selected raw materials and cherish the delicate sensibility unique to Japan while touching on world traditions and arts. The "Brass Incense Holder" is a stand exclusively for bamboo-type (bamboo core type) incense. It is handcrafted from solid brass material without plating or painting.
To bring out the texture of brass, a light surface finish is applied, so the color gradually deepens with use, enhancing the beauty of the brass. Enjoy the changing appearance over time as it naturally blends into your life.
Inserting incense into the holder adds height and three-dimensionality to the space. As part of the interior, it subtly decorates the space while the fragrance spreads pleasantly. Placing incense in your favorite spots such as the entrance or bedside table creates a calming and healing atmosphere.
This brass stand comes in a box, so it can be used as a gift as is. Pairing it with "Incense Sticks" as a set makes it easy to enjoy the fragrance at home immediately, so it's also recommended to choose imagining the recipient's favorite scent.
When using this product, place it on a flat surface. After lighting the tip of the incense, extinguish the flame and let the smoke curl before inserting the bamboo handle part into the pipe hole. Brass changes color and texture with age. Like the aging of leather goods, enjoying this aging process is one of its charms. If rust is a concern, polishing with a commercially available metal polish or polishing cloth can restore its original shine.
