Tiger God Ceramic Incense Holder & Diffuser Stone, Tiger Zodiac Ornament, Feng Shui Garden Landscaping Accessory

Chen Xuan-Heng is a Taiwanese ceramic artist renowned for his wood-fired pottery and his brand "Xuan Tea Ware." He founded "Zhuo Yun Yue Heng Studio," dedicated to the handcrafted creation of ceramic pieces such as tea ware, vases, and incense holders. Artistic Style and Philosophy Chen Xuan-Heng's work emphasizes the natural expression of handfeel and brushstrokes, enhanced by diverse textural decorations. This approach allows the ash layers formed during the wood-firing process to create rich variations, showcasing a beauty where nature and humanity converge. His "Sea Rhyme Series" tea bowls, inspired by ocean waves, capture the layers and dynamism of the sea. Beyond his ceramic artistry, Chen Xuan-Heng is passionate about self-learning and playing the traditional Okinawan instrument, the "Sanshin." He frequently shares videos of himself playing and singing on social media, demonstrating his love for Okinawan music.

Not suitable for ovens, microwaves, or dishwashers.** **2. Do not use steel wool for cleaning to avoid scratching the ceramic glaze. Please use a soft cloth or sponge brush.** **1. Some products are hand-glazed, and the glaze color will vary due to the depth of the glaze material.** **2. Some items are handmade, so they may not be perfectly uniform in size like mass-produced items. Wood-fired pieces may occasionally show signs of glaze drips or polishing marks; these will be clearly indicated in the product photos and descriptions. If you are seeking absolute perfection or are overly meticulous, please consider carefully before ordering, and appreciate the unique characteristics of handmade items.** **3. Due to the mineral content in ceramics, small pits, air bubbles, or small iron spots may naturally occur after firing at high temperatures. This is a normal phenomenon.** **4. Due to color variations on consumer 3C screens and natural changes during the firing process, there may be slight color differences between the products listed on this website and the actual items received. The color of the delivered item will prevail.** **Designed and handcrafted by Taiwanese artisans or commissioned for mass production**
