Short Japanese incense sticks — approximately 20 minutes burn time.
Light a stick at the beginning of a reading, writing, or creative session.
Its approximately 8 cm size allows it to scent the room for a short period,
without requiring prolonged burning.
Four available scents:
Tuberose, Sauvage, Black Tea, and Cedar.
As the sticks are slightly thicker than some fine incenses,
please check the diameter of your incense holder before use.
Information
The stated duration is approximately 20 minutes.
It may vary slightly depending on room ventilation,
drafts, and the storage conditions of the stick.
The short format is suitable for moments when you want to mark a beginning and an end:
a few pages of reading, a calligraphy session,
a drawing time, or a break at the end of the day.
Olfactory intensity depends on the size of the room and its ventilation.
Start with a single stick and air out the room after use.

Use and precautions
-
Place the stick in a stable incense holder, on a heat-resistant surface.
-
Light the end, let the flame catch for a few seconds,
then gently blow to keep it smoldering.
-
Ensure that the ashes fall entirely into the holder.
-
Ventilate the room after burning.
Never leave burning incense unattended.
Keep it away from fabrics, papers, drafts,
children, and pets.
Do not use the stick in an enclosed space without ventilation.
🤍 Ikane workshop tip
Light just one stick at the beginning.
Its burn becomes a simple marker:
once the scent has settled, put away your phone
and enter your chosen practice.
