This incense holder set was created by a 100-year old company that is located in Takaoka City, the historical capital of Japanese copper and brass metalworking. Carefully hand cast and finished with refined traditional techniques, the brass will darken and mellow over time and with use. The set consists of three parts, a spherical ball holder for stick incense, a small platform for brick or cone incense, and a larger dish to capture the ashes of either kind.
