Backflow Incense Burners

The backflow incense burner is a unique aromatherapy tool that is designed to allow the smoke to flow backwards, creating a waterfall-like visual effect, and is loved by aromatherapy enthusiasts.

What is a Backflow Incense Burner?

The backflow incense burner is a specially designed incense burner whose structure allows the smoke to flow from top to bottom, forming a unique visual effect. The realization of this effect relies on the special design of the backflow incense cone. The smoke produced when burning is heavier than air, so it will flow downwards and slowly sink along the path of the incense burner, like a waterfall.

The Material, Color and Shape of the Backflow Incense Burner

Most of the backflow incense burners are made of wood, stone, pottery, etc. Our incense burners are designed with Chinese characteristics: crane, pine and cypress are symbols of longevity, and they are good gifts for the elderly at home; Modern and fashionable shapes include Buddha's hands, Buddha statues, lotus flowers, etc., which are decorated with colorful lights, and can be sent to friends and companions, elegant and full of Zen; Friends who like nature can choose the shapes of green mountains, green waters and auspicious clouds; Friends who like Chinese culture have the choice of flying dragon; In addition, Halloween pumpkin lanterns can also add fun to your holiday.

Most of the backward flow incense burners are mainly black and dark grayish brown, which can form a sharp contrast with the smoke generated when the incense is burned, and more highlight the atmosphere brought by the smoke.

Backflow incense not only has a high value of visual appreciation, but also plays a role in dispelling evil spirits and turning evil spirits and bringing good fortune in geomancy. However, when we order backflow incense at home, we should pay attention to the following three points:

1. Keep the small environment of incense not ventilated, and ventilate after the incense is finished to make the room full of fragrance. Because in a naturally ventilated environment, its thick smoke will be blown away by the wind, thus losing the ornamental nature of the backward flow incense, and it is also unfavorable for the backward flow incense to give full play to its geomantic effect of avoiding evil, opening up good fortune and transforming evil spirits.

2. Avoid selecting chemically synthesized inferior tassels. The shape design of backflow incense is generally hollow in the middle of the upper tip and the lower circle, so it is called tower incense or cone incense. We must choose pure raw materials of tassels, preferably natural spices such as agarwood and sandalwood, so as not to harm our physical and mental health, but also to help us cultivate ourselves and calm down.

3. Do not put the backflow incense burner in the bedroom. The fragrance of the backflow incense is stronger than that of the general incense. If it is placed in the bedroom, the excessively strong fragrance is not conducive to sleep. In the long run, it is harmful to health.

How to Use the Backflow Incense Burner

When you use the backflow incense burner, it is recommended to follow the following steps:

Choose the right backflow incense cone: Make sure to use a dedicated backflow incense cone to get the best smoke effect.

Light the incense cone: Light the tip of the backflow incense cone, wait for it to burn fully for about 4-6 seconds, then gently blow out the open flame, making sure the surface of the incense cone is red and hot.

Place the incense cone: Place the burning incense cone in the designated position of the incense burner, making sure that the small hole at the bottom of the incense cone is aligned with the through hole of the incense burner so that the smoke can flow down smoothly.

Keep the environment quiet and stable: To achieve the best backflow effect, it is recommended to use it in a windless environment to avoid air flow affecting the sinking of smoke. This operation is very important. Some users say that the backflow incense burner does not have the effect of waterfall because it is not used in a windless environment.
