Yakusugi Decorative Incense Burner JAC-YBK-507-KR-01

This exquisite piece is carved from solid Yakusugi (Yakushima cedar) and features a beautifully detailed decorative relief of a plum blossom and bush warbler.

When the upper lid is removed, you'll find a simple ceramic incense container (kōgō) fitted inside.
The lid is also perforated, allowing it to remain in place even while incense is burning.

Yakusugi (cedar wood) is beautiful and graceful with their intricate and elaborate grain patterns that there are serious "Yakusugi collectors" all over the world.
Since Yakushima Island has been registered as a UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site, logging has been prohibited and the quantity of Yakusugi trees on the market is quite limited, making them extremely difficult to obtain.
The color of Yakusugi (cedar) wood is reddish-brown. It is a very beautiful wood with its unique aroma and intricate grain patterns.
Please note that the tree oil or fat may start to seep as time goes by as the wood contains a lot of oil and fat.
