Glass Incense burner
More than a simple incense burner, it’s the key tool at the core of the ancient ritual of incense listening, rather than burning. A modern descendant from an era of profound refinement, when the incense practice was perfected into the art of 香道 Xiāngdào (The Way of Incense). Moving away from the burning of raw materials, the masters of the Song Dynasty understood a vital truth: the most complex and high notes of precious woods, like agarwood and sandalwood, are better appreciated with the warmth, not with the fire. By separating the fragrant materials from the direct source of heat, they sought to clear fragrances from the interference of direct fire, charcoal and ashes. In this modern incense burner, the tall glass chamber channels the steady heat of the flame of the candle toward the mesh on top of the glass, where a coin and a small metal plate welcome pieces of pure wood or incense. Touched by the rising hot air, here the materials release their essence and fragrance by sublimation
