The Mountain Stream Incense Burner

Substantially taller than typical tabletop burners. Suitable for floor placement, low tables, or sturdy shelving. Not ideal for narrow shelves or small desks.

Smoke Flow Path
Cone placed at top of mountain. Smoke descends through carved channels, cascades over cliff faces, pools in valleys, continues downward through multiple tiers.

Longer descent path means extended visual display. Smoke may take 20-30 seconds to reach bottom tier.

Requirements:

• Backflow incense cones only (not included)
• Level surface critical for proper flow
• Still air environment (drafts disrupt smoke)
• Fresh cones for best effect

Burn Time:
Single cone burns 15-20 minutes. Continuous smoke cascade throughout burn duration.

Placement:

1. Choose stable, level, heat-resistant surface
2. Ensure adequate space around burner (smoke spreads)
3. Position away from air vents, fans, open windows
4. Place protective mat if concerned about residue

Operation:

1. Light backflow cone at tip
2. Let burn 5-10 seconds, blow out
3. Place on holder at mountain peak
4. Watch smoke begin descending within 30 seconds

Benefits depend on incense scent chosen. Burner provides visual and structural element.

Cleaning:
Wipe with dry or slightly damp cloth. Use soft brush for channels and crevices. Mild soap if needed. Dry completely. Clean channels periodically to maintain smoke flow.

Residue:
Backflow incense creates more residue than stick incense. Regular cleaning maintains appearance and function.

Resin can chip if dropped on hard surface. Handle by base. Store safely when not in use.

Surface Protection:
Use mat or trivet underneath. Some smoke residue may settle on surface below burner.
