This incense burner includes a tiger + matching dish + and a small box of Nag Champa cone incense.
The inspiration came from Korean Minhwa (folk art painting), where a tiger hangs out with a magpie in front of a pine tree.
In Korea, almost every tale starts with "Back when tigers used to smoke," instead of "Once upon a time,".
For centuries, tigers were considered to be the god of mountains, sometimes devils that attack people, and sometimes a silly animal that's fooled by a rabbit.
I wanted to capture all those stories in this ceramic piece that can represent my heritage.
Hand-made from white speckled clay with pinch pot technique and painted with black underglaze.
Then it is fired in 1,945F for nearly 24 hours. Glazed with matte clear, food-safe glaze and then fired again in 2,320F for about 20 hours.
- Tiger : 3" x 2.5" x 4.25"
- Dish: 4" x 3.25"
- Do not use it for other purposes than as an incense holder
- Feel good about your package! Every material used for shipping is bio-degradable
- Made in Montclair, New Jersey.
