Mica Plate- Shoyeido

• Brand: Shoyeido Japan
• Dimension: 7/8"
• Used on charcoal and ash to gently raise the temperature of aromatic wood chips or used with an electronic incense burner.

Thin sheets of mica, a translucent silicate mineral, have been used in Japan for hundreds of years for the purpose of heating - rather than burning - raw aromatics wood chips and kneaded incense.

There is no more burning scent, just the sweet, creamy vanillic, classic agarwood chip, the scent from heaven. To have a better experience in enjoying agarwood chip, this tool is strongly recommended. 

This is a perfect way to insulate the extreme heat from charcoal, preventing the chip from burning and keeping the right temperature for a good time. A good way to enjoy fragrant wood longer with a better experience
