Between your fingers, a soft, hand-braided coil of incense — light beige, with a gentle spiral and tapered ends — carries the quiet of Himalayan cedar. This rope style has deep roots in Nepal, where dhup is cherished in homes, stupas, and temples, especially within Newar communities. 🌲🏔️
Carefully hand-rolled and twisted, each rope tucks natural Himalayan herbs and resins into hand-prepared rice paper, then braids them into a slow, steady burn. The scent opens warm and resinous, with clean, woody cedar notes and a dry, balsamic sweetness. It settles the room with a grounded calm and a clear, respectful presence. In Nepali tradition, cedar is valued as a steadying, protective wood — a reminder of clarity and composure in everyday life.
- 🌲 Cedar Heart: Warm, resinous aroma with clean, woody depth.
- 👐 Hand-Braided Craft: Herbs and resins woven into rice paper, twisted by hand.
- ⏳ Mindful Burn: Each rope smolders for around 15 minutes.
How to burn: Light the tip, let a small flame catch, then gently fan it out to a glowing ember. Set the rope on an ash bed or in a fireproof metal or stone dish. This traditional form produces ample smoke — use one rope at a time, and burn in a well-ventilated space. Never leave unattended, and keep away from children, pets, and drafts. 🔥
A beautiful companion for meditation, small rituals, or winding down the day — a thoughtful gift for anyone who finds joy in simple, natural moments. 🧘
