Find a quiet moment of Japanese tranquility in this incense set, designed by Satoshi Saito and handcrafted in Hayama. It captures the serene image of a single droplet falling onto bamboo, pairing a slender brass tray with a naturally shaped tin holder to create a minimalist setup for your quiet rituals. Please note: incense sticks are not included.
Each tin holder is formed by hand, giving every piece its own unique character. Because the holder rests separately on the tray, you can position it wherever you like along the 200 by 23 millimeter brass base. The tray fits standard incense sticks measuring around 2 by 140 millimeters. Choose between two subtle finishes: a chic tin-silver coating that gradually wears down to reveal warm golden brass beneath, or a dark black dye that deepens into a rich patina over time.
Handmade metalwork carries a character that grows richer with use. Slight variations, subtle scratches, and natural oxidation only add to the story of the piece. It's a thoughtful blend of modern design and traditional Japanese craftsmanship that brings art into daily life.
Tin incense holder with a brass tray, designed to evoke a single drop falling onto bamboo. The naturally formed tin holder is separate from the tray and can be positioned as desired; each piece has its own individual shape.
Brass tray size: approx. 200 × 23 mm. Suitable for standard incense sticks measuring approx. 2 × 140 mm. Incense is not included. Depending on how ash falls, the tray may not catch all ash.
Available in tin-silver or black-dyed finishes. The tin-silver finish is created with thin tin plating and will gradually wear to reveal the golden brass beneath. The black finish is created by an oxidized surface layer; acids, impacts, and abrasion may reveal the underlying copper. Both finishes develop character and color changes with use.
Made by hand in Hayama. Design by Satoshi Saito. Colors, shapes, oxidation marks, and minor surface scratches may vary between pieces.
