Takaoka Metalwork Chrysanthemum mountain water Incense Burner

Takaoka Metalwork Chrysanthemum Mountain Water Incense Burner

A chrysanthemum blossom crowns the lid of this incense burner, while a mountain-and-water landscape (sansui) scene unfolds across its body, evoking the timeless beauty of nature. The pairing of these two motifs gives the piece a serene, classical character.

This piece is a product of Takaoka Metalwork, a traditional craft with over 400 years of history in Takaoka, Toyama Prefecture. The body is cast in copper and finished by hand in a kodeiro (antique-tone) coloring by the region's artisans.

How to Use

Fill the bowl with ash, then place a lit incense cone, stick, or piece of charcoal on top of the ash to enjoy the fragrance.
