Item Description
This Scented Mountain incense set consists of two boxes of highest quality agarwood incense and one round flat incense burner.
The incense sticks are made from select agarwood with the highest concentration of aromatic resin available. They are for the connoisseur looking for the best aroma possible from an incense stick. Burning only part of the stick is sufficient to produce a beautiful agarwood fragrance.
The ceramic burners are made by rural people in Vietnam and function perfectly to hold the burning incense stick. A fine functional piece but some have very minor imperfections due to the handmade nature of the product and the rural conditions under which they are made. Colors: green, creme, black or light blue (not shown in photo).
Agarwood is a resin produced inside a tropical rainforest tree called Aquilaria. The dark resinous wood has a magnificent aroma when burned. It is considered the finest natural incense and has been used for cultural, religious and medicinal purposes for millennia. Agarwood was traded from Asia to the Middle East in ancient times and its long history of use is cited in the bible and other early religious texts. This rare and exquisite resinous wood, coveted by Kings and royalty, is now available for everyone to enjoy.
Based on research from scientific investigations carried out over more than a decade by the Agarwood Research Project at the University of Minnesota in cooperation with the Rainforest Project Foundation, methods to cultivate agarwood have been developed and it can now be produced in a sustainable way in plantation grown trees. These trees are farmed in the mountains of southern Vietnam and products from them will provide a new economy for poor rural people. Scented Mountain is proud to offer fine cultivated agarwood products for you to enjoy with peace of mind knowing it is certified as grown from sustainable plantations.
