As our first feature, we are glad to offer you one-of-a-kind ceramic incense holders created by an acclaimed Lithuanian potter and art educator. The incense burners are made from chamotte, a white clay, and coated with a vitreous glaze that has been fused to a ceramic burner through firing.
Each piece is handmade and completely unique, radiating the warmth and good energy that went into making them. This series has been inspired by nature and made exclusively for In Sense. When they are gone – they are gone!
The meaning behind the design: Our Birds of Calm collection depicts birds drinking water. The bird is a symbol of freedom, a connection between heaven and earth. The peaceful properties of water have the power to take you away from distractions and to aid in finding your moment of calm.
