Lotus Incense Plate
The Lotus Incense Plate is inspired by traditional Japanese landscape with this one featuring the beloved lotus flower rising up from the reeds. The bright plum color is offset by the simple subdued background color tone. The lotus is known as the flower of Buddha. It is firmly rooted in a muddy swamp with its blooms of vivid colors making it stand out as a symbol of beauty.
The small but solid incense stand with a silvery shine gives a sense of stability. The incense stand can be moved around the plate.
This incense plate series is inspired by the ultimate art theory written by Zeami, the great master of Noh, who deeply pursued beauty for Japanese people and expressed it in fragrance.
