About this product
The falling-smoke effect
- It suits a desk, shelf, side table or meditation space where you can watch the smoke settle and curl.
- The coin-inspired form adds a more symbolic mood than a plain incense holder.
- Use it when you want incense to feel visual as well as fragrant.
Ceramic with a coin-inspired design
The burner is made from ceramic, giving it a solid decorative presence while still needing gentle handling. Its design takes its cue from ancient Chinese coin imagery, a motif traditionally linked with prosperity, blessing and well-wishing in Chinese decorative culture.
How to use it well
Place the burner on a stable surface. Set a lit backflow incense cone on the top point or cone seat, then allow the smoke to begin its downward flow.
After use, let the burner cool fully, then wipe away ash and residue with a soft, dry cloth.
The meaning behind the motif
Chinese coin motifs are widely used in decorative objects as symbols of good fortune, abundance and auspicious beginnings. In this burner, that cultural reference sits alongside the backflow smoke effect, creating a piece that feels both ornamental and ritual-friendly. It is about bringing a familiar symbol of well-wishing into the daily act of lighting incense, especially in a home, work area or quiet personal space.

★★★★★ SHAMTAM customerGlad I gave it a chance
I was worried by some of the negative reviews, but I'm glad I gave this a chance. It is beautiful, arrived safely and in one piece. The cones are large, and the smoke drifts beautifully down the platforms forming a waterfall effect....exactly as I hoped. Even a slight draft will affect this though, so find a nice quiet

★★★★★ SHAMTAM customerA great idea.... but...
I bought the green incense waterfall burner which looks aesthetically pleasing. I bought this as a gift and thought I best try it before giving it, because the reviews were a mixed bag. When I opened the bag of scented cones there wasn't much scent. I chose the lavender coloured cone but it didn't smell like lavender b
