This Japanese incense burner is practical, elegant and has a timeless style. Its neutral colour suits every home decoration.

Having no bamboo core, they will burn completely without leaving a trace.

Yukari Japanese incense burners
Like cuisine and medicine, incense is deeply intertwined with local traditions handed down from generation to generation. In Japan for instance, court nobles used to enjoy refined scents through games and ceremonies. The incense burners they used were historically manufactured in Mino province, near present-day Gifu in central Japan, where a thriving ceramic industry flourished in the 16th century.
