The 'CAGE' incense holder has been designed by Kenji Abe for ifuki as a meditative decor piece for the home to provide a person with an eye-catching yet relaxing way to aromatically enhance a space. The incense holder is characterized by its lattice structure that calls to mind the lines and patterns drawn in the sand in zen gardens, which also functionally allows the aromatic smoke to escape into the space. The lines also divide the smoke and allow it to move in thoughtful directions to prioritize a sense of balance.
The 'CAGE' incense holder is designed in two styles including a geometric one and a rounded, cage-like one, which are both constructed using metal materials. The holders work with cone-style incense.
