Blended incense, known as "lengningxiang" in ancient times, is made by combining various natural fragrances such as floral, woody, resinous, fruity, and mineral scents, along with spices that possess health benefits, in a harmonious ratio according to traditional Chinese medicine. The ancients believed that "incense is born from the convergence of pure yang elements of heaven and earth." Wearing incense products is believed to purify the mind, promote well-being, alleviate stress, enhance the body's scent and spirit, and gather yang energy to ward off yin and evil. Purely handmade blended incense products involve intricate processes, possess a rich aroma, and long-lasting fragrance, suitable for direct smelling, wearing, and handling. Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes accumulation over time; as the owner's contact time increases, the aroma becomes richer and more varied. Each incense bead is hand-polished, lending a touch of elegant temperament when worn on the hand. After rubbing and handling, the aroma becomes not only long-lasting but also beautifully lustrous. Worn around the wrist, the flickering aromatic medicinal notes subtly permeate the body and the senses, barely perceptible yet captivating the heart. **> Care** Avoid harsh damage. Please pay attention to **preservation from moisture, water, and fire**. When not wearing, store in a cool, dry environment. If accidentally exposed to water during use, gently pat dry with a paper towel and then dry in the sun. As no preservatives are added, if it accidentally becomes damp and moldy, simply clean with a brush, dry, gently wipe with a cotton cloth, and seal for 2 to 3 days to restore it. ** In summary, frequent wear and handling are the best methods of preservation.**
