Incense smoke has a powerful effect due to the combination of its physical aroma, psychological relaxation, symbolic meaning and sensory immersion. This makes it an essential tool for creating a deeper and more meaningful ambiance.
All our incense holders are designed not only to serve their primary function but also as objects for contemplation — this is an integral part of our creation process and invention of new forms.
Asteroids have preserved the primordial matter from which the Solar System was formed. They symbolize the uncontrollable forces of the universe and remind us of life's unpredictability.
The incense holder is named after Asteroid Kalliope, a unique metal-rich asteroid located between Mars and Jupiter, which is also know to have a moon. Kalliope acts as a mirror for origins of planetary formation and it also symbolizes the loneliness of humanity in the universe and, at the same time, its drive for exploration and the search for the unknown.
