Description:
Made with well-honed craftsmanship in old downtown Tokyo, this incense holder was inspired by a brass cylindrical bar. Its simple design is the result of a turning process that requires extreme precision. The holder’s shape also resembles an acorn, which is where it gets its moniker, and has an opening for incense on either side. The geometric shape of the holder and placement of the opening allows you to rest the acorn at different angles to let the incense point straight up or at a low or high angle.
