Bring a Smile to Your Space
Light up your room with our "Joyful Little Monk" incense holder. This adorable ceramic figure features a beaming little monk holding a fan, with a contagious smile that brightens any mood.
Designed specifically for stick incense, this holder is both functional and decorative. The incense stick rests gently in the holder, allowing the fragrance to drift through your room while the little monk stands guard with his happy expression. It is the perfect small companion for a desk, tea table, or bedside shelf.
The Art of Slow Craft: How It Is Made
To ensure the highest quality, our artisans follow a rigorous, traditional process for every single piece:
• Clay Kneading & Sculpting:
We start with high-quality raw pottery clay. The artisan hand-kneads the clay to remove air bubbles. The figure is then hand-sculpted, from the roundness of the head to the tiny details of the fan and the joyful facial expression.
• Natural Air Drying:
We do not rush nature. The sculpture must be left to air-dry slowly in a controlled environment. This crucial waiting period prevents the clay from cracking and prepares it for the kiln.
• Hand Painting & Detailing:
Once dried, the piece is carefully finished by hand. The artisan adds the facial details—like the rosy cheeks and smiling mouth—to bring the character to life.
• High-Temperature Firing:
Finally, the work is fired in a kiln at extremely high temperatures. This process hardens the clay into durable ceramic with a beautiful, earthy texture that feels warm to the touch.
