Hokkien Window Grille Incense Holder | Ceramic Natural Incense Stick Holder

~~~~~~~~Development History~~~~~~~~ Developed in partnership with a renowned Quanzhou ceramic/porcelain master, this incense holder captures the essence of the green-glazed ceramic window grille, which serves both functional and decorative purposes. The window grille's design resembles a blooming flower, hence its name "花枳窗" (hua zhi chuang), showcasing the wisdom of ancient architects. Strategically placed at the top of the house, these grilles allow hot air to escape, promoting ventilation. The green-glazed ceramic complements the red and white hues of the house, creating a visually striking color palette. The Hokkien Window Grille Incense Holder celebrates this rich cultural heritage by adapting the iconic design into a functional and decorative object for modern homes. By collaborating with a skilled artisan from Quanzhou, the birthplace of this ceramic tradition, we have created a piece that not only holds incense but also tells a story of architectural ingenuity, cultural exchange, and the enduring beauty of traditional craftsmanship. ~~~~~~~~Certified Incense Master~~~~~~~~ Master Li, an Intangible Cultural Heritage Inheritor, is the Director of the Incense-Making Skills Center of the China Incense Association.
