War + Peace Stick Incense Collection

$35.00

The concept of ‘war + peace’ lodged itself into my brain, and I really wanted to play with dichotomy. So I grabbed some wood & let it lead me where it wanted to go.

All pieces are made from a base of live edge mesquite (which symbolizes perspective). Half of the incense stick holders are made from red oak (Roman generals were presented with wreaths made of oak leaves after important battles) and the other half are made from repurposed .223 brass ammo (brass, ironically symbolizes positivity + abundance).

A - 1 1/4“h x 5 1/4“w x 5 5/8”l

B - 1 1/4“h x 5 3/4“w x 5 1/2”l

C - 1 1/4“h x 5 1/4“w x 5 3/4”l

D - 1 1/4“h x 5 1/2“w x 5 1/2”l

E - 1 1/4“h x 5 1/4“w x 6”l

F - 1 1/4“h x 5 5/8“w x 5 1/4”l

NOTE: Never leave burning incense unattended. Incense left burning can cause fires and put you and your home in danger.

  • Mesquite is said to bring about perspective. While many consider the mesquite an invasive weed, for centuries it was a vital asset for the resourceful indigenous people.

    Long before the first Anglo settlers came to Texas, Native Americans used mesquite in its entirety, seeing it as an integral part of their culture & survival. The wood and fibers were used to make shelter, tools, weapons, and kindling. They made sewing and tattoo needles from the thorns and used the inner bark to make baskets, nets, rope, & fabric. Due to its reliability, even during years of drought, the mesquite bean was a valuable commodity that was directly eaten or ground into flour. Even the gum was used as a glue, dye, or used in water-proofing baskets or nets.

  • Oak trees, famed for their endurance and longevity, remind us of our inner strength & integrity as we reconnect with our divine nature.

    Oak leaves are some of the last leaves to fall from the trees in autumn, and some species of oak trees do not lose their leaves at all. Ancient people viewed this as a positive quality—the leaves were being tenacious, demonstrating determination and a no-quit attitude. These were the same qualities that they wanted to see in their military. For this reason, oak leaves came to symbolize victory in battle. Roman generals were presented with wreaths made of oak leaves after important battles.

  • In spiritual and metaphysical traditions Brass is the metal that brings out natural good and inner truth. Even the phrase 'getting down to brass tacks' tells of clearing away the old debris and getting down to the pure and natural truth. The Vedic texts have showcased the use of brass metal to attract positivity and abundance in life. Its use in rituals can help to invoke divine consciousness because it is made of zinc and Copper.

  • Bark inclusions are pockets of bark found within the interior of a tree. An ingrown Limb is a limb or branch that has been cut through during the sawing process.

    A knot is a portion of a branch or limb that has become incorporated in a piece of lumber.

  • Live-edge defines the unfinished edge of the woodwork. It is the periphery of wood not altered by hand tools or woodworking machinery. As a result, the untouched ends retain the original characteristics of a tree; its shape, texture, and sometimes even its bark.
