NORTHTALGIA INCENSE STICKS

An Interpretation of Inner Wood
A representation of the unveiling of inner essence. This object draws inspiration from the image of bark slowly peeling away from a tree trunk, revealing the hidden core within. A quiet yet powerful transformation shaped by time and nature becomes the conceptual foundation for this incense holder’s packaging. The box is crafted through meticulous metal bending and welding, reimagining organic separation in a contemporary form.

With its enveloping structure, gracefully flared ends, and a surface that shifts with light and angle, the object embodies both technical precision and experimental expression. It feels at once modern and grounded in nature. More than a container, this metal box becomes a vessel of meaning evoking the dialogue between core and shell, between what is concealed and what is gently revealed.
