Hana-kessho Kinokō Mushroom Incense Holder | KUMAGAI
Hana-kessho Kinokō Mushroom Incense Holder | KUMAGAI
COUNTLESS - The number of trials to finally find the perfect diameters of bottom air holes.
Introducing the new and adorably cute mushroom-shaped incense burner by Kumagai (since 1935). Delightfully known as “kinoko”, it is decorated using Hana-kessho, a specialised flower crystallisation technique. The mushroom dome safely encases the incense, while allowing the aromatic scent to flow through the top hole, making it a beautiful little creation for you to use at home.
