poly incense holder <brass>

The "poly incense holder <brass>" is a brass incense holder made using die-casting, a high-precision casting method. Its icosahedral form allows you to use it at three different angles. (It can be used with stick-type incense such as senko (Japanese incense sticks) and bamboo incense.)

Brass is a material used for various purposes in our daily lives, from musical instruments and building materials to Buddhist altar fittings and coins, due to its excellent material properties such as workability and corrosion resistance. Like bronze and copper, it undergoes changes in color and texture over time due to surface oxidation. To allow you to enjoy this aging process, we have not applied any coating to the surface.

When incense burns out, a few millimeters may remain and be difficult to remove due to the sticky resin. However, because there is a small hole that runs through the incense holder, you can easily remove the remaining incense by pushing it out from the other side with a pin or similar object.

The icosahedron, composed of 20 equilateral triangular faces, is the regular polyhedron with the greatest number of faces in three-dimensional space. While it has a simple form, multiple faces are visible from any angle, and the differences in light reflection give it a variety of expressions.
