Skye Hignett Charred Totara Wooden Incense Holder

Made from reclaimed Tōtara with a brass insert. Shaped on the lathe, charred, then re-turned on the lathe to reveal the underlying grain and create a burnt border. Buffed with Tung oil and Mānuka Wood Conditioner.

Based in Tāmaki Makaurau/Auckland, Skye (Ngāti Tutemohuta) discovered woodturning after the birth of her first child. She loves to create simple and functional pieces that emphasise the natural beauty and warmth of wood, and embrace its imperfections. Knots, burls, cracks, and nail holes are not seen as defects, but tell a story of the life of the wood, and it’s journey.

Each incense holder is hand-crafted individually, and thus the colour of the timber and grain will vary. All measurements are approximate, and there may be slight variations in shape and size between each individual piece.
