Collection: Incense Sticks And Cones.

The earliest stick shaped incense appeared in China in the Ming Dynasty (1348-1644), and it has since become the most popular form of incense in use.

Typical incense cones are made in a very similar way to incense without a core. Continuing on with the metaphor above, you could think of it as being a different shape of “pasta” if you’d like. Instead of forming the paste into the long, thin stick shape, incense paste is placed into cone shaped molds, removed, then allowed to dry.
