Handmade in Kyoto, Japan and designed by Nobuhiro Sato, these little mortar houses reflect the charming details of everyday life. This can be seen in the textural variations in the wood grain used in the forming process, the meticulous window glass and fences, and the incense smoke rising from each tiny chimney.

Enjoy the playfulness of each unique piece from this collection. Each type features different window arrangements and base colours, so please choose your favourite design.

Note: Colour unevenness due to wood grain and lye creates a warm and simple texture. The handmade nature means no two are the same and small imperfections are a part of the work’s texture.

This item is often purchased with the Tennen Incense Cone.

Cleaning: incense residue on the base of the incense pot can be cleaned by a brush with light dish soap.
