A bloom-shaped ceramic holder inspired by the tropical flora of Bali, designed in Australia and hand-painted by an artisan family in Bali. It catches the ash properly, protects the surface underneath, and looks like something you would put out on purpose rather than hide behind a candle. Arrives cushioned in In Time's own presentation box, so it gives without any extra wrapping.
Key Features
- Hand-painted. Individually, so every piece is genuinely one of a kind.
- Fit. Securely holds most standard incense sticks.
- The glaze. Heat-resistant, high-quality ceramic that protects the surface beneath.
- Origin. Designed in Australia, handmade in small batches by Balinese artisans.
- Gift ready. Arrives in a protective, cushioned gift box.
- Size. 10cm diameter, 90g.
Pūrē Standard
- Genuinely handmade, and it shows. Each holder is hand-painted rather than transfer-printed, which is why the veining on the petals differs from piece to piece. In Time name their maker as an artisan family in Bali rather than a factory, and design the pieces in Australia.
- Ceramic and nothing else. No plastic, no synthetic materials, no coating that will wear off. A fired ceramic object is about as durable as homewares get, and this is one you keep rather than replace.
- It solves the actual problem. Incense ash gets everywhere and stains. A proper glazed dish with a secure stick hole catches all of it and shields the surface from heat, which a saucer or a bit of foil does not.
- The packaging is part of the product. A rigid box with cushioning, which is why it survives postage and why it works as a gift with nothing added.
- Expect variation, that is the point. Slight differences in colour, shape and finish come with the handmade process. If you want two identical ones, this is not that.
- What we would like to know. In Time do not publish the glaze composition. It is a decorative object rather than tableware so it is not a food-contact question, but confirmation the glaze is lead-free is the one thing that would lift Low-Tox to a 5.

Our Take
A ceramic holder that treats incense as something worth displaying rather than balancing on the edge of a book. It catches all the ash and shields the surface underneath, which foil and saucers never manage.
