Diffuser in woven bamboo and porcelain – accompanied by 8 bamboo reeds
Specializing in the art of bamboo since 1898, Kohchosai Kosuga combines tradition and modernity to offer new styles of bamboo crafts, while preserving ancestral know-how. Since its creation in Kyoto, five generations of artisans have supplied the imperial family as well as the great families of the Japanese court with bamboo objects and incense.
Working with this raw material for several generations, Kohchosai Kosuga has developed a wide variety of original creations around a unique philosophy: “Creating bamboo objects to enrich life”. From artistic crafts to everyday objects, all pieces are made by hand.
This Kohchosai Kosuga porcelain diffuser is wrapped in a bamboo net hand-woven in the house's workshop. It comes with eight bamboo reeds to diffuse your scented oils.*
Due to its natural materials, slight variations in color, tone and texture may occur. Bamboo can patina or lighten over time, especially if exposed to direct sunlight.
*Fragrance oil is not included.

Directions for use
Pour your scented oil into the diffuser (about halfway up), then insert the bamboo reeds. The fragrance diffuses delicately for approximately two months.
When the intensity of the fragrance diminishes, turn the reeds over so that the impregnated ends are exposed to air, and add oil if necessary.
Avoid dampening the bamboo weave. If it comes into contact with water, dry it immediately.
