Product Description

A small circle of stillness.

The "Maru" Incense Stand is proof that the most profound rituals don't require elaborate tools. Named after the Japanese word for "circle," this minimalist disc acts as a dedicated anchor for your incense, providing a clean, architectural base that invites a moment of focus.

Crafted in Yokkaichi from Nankei’s signature Suna-neri (sand-toned) clay, this stand is fully unglazed. Its raw, tactile surface feels like a smooth piece of sun-warmed earth, bringing an organic, outdoor element to your indoor sanctuary.

Details

Made in Yokkaichi, Mie Prefecture, Japan

Measurements: approx. 

Colour: Sand clay.

Materials: Natural unglazed clay.

Finish: Unglazed exterior, unglazed interior.

Use: Always place the maru stand on a non-flammable, heat-resistant surface (such as a ceramic plate or a bed of ash) to catch any falling embers. 

Care: Hand wash only with mild and neutral detergent and soft sponge. Avoid abrasive scrubbers or harsh cleaners, as these can scratch the surface of the pottery. Allow the bowl to air-dry thoroughly before storing away.

About Nankei Pottery's unglazed cups and tablewares:

This product highlights the raw texture of the clay. While oil stains may occur more easily than on glazed items, they can typically be removed by applying a small amount of detergent and scrubbing with a brush.

Because these pieces are unglazed and crafted from raw, mineral-rich earth, you may notice subtle orange blushes or tiny dark iron spots on the surface. These are not defects, but the natural mineral colours of the clay reacting to the high heat of the kiln. Each piece is a unique record of its firing, carrying the honest fingerprints of the Japanese landscape.

Nankei Pottery

Since 1913, Nankei Pottery has been refining the relationship between earth and tea. Based in Yokkaichi, the heart of Japan's Banko-yaki tradition, this family-run kiln spent its first sixty years as a specialist clay refiner before transitioning into master pottery in 1972. This deep, "dirt-first" expertise is what sets them apart—they don't just shape clay; they engineer it to enhance the flavuor of your brew. Every piece follows the philosophy of Banjikyusu, the belief that a single, intentional cup of tea can "turn misfortune into fortune" by providing a much-needed pause in a busy and distracting world. By blending centuries-old techniques with a clean, minimalist aesthetic, Nankei creates functional heirlooms that feel as grounded as the landscape they came from.
