The history of incense cones and sticks dates back thousands of years, with origins tracing to ancient civilisations such as China, India, and Egypt, where they were used for spiritual, medicinal, and ceremonial purposes. In China, incense was integral to religious rituals and meditation practices, while in India, it became essential in Ayurveda and spiritual offerings. The earliest forms were made by blending fragrant herbs, resins, and oils, then shaping them into cones or sticks for ease of use and burning. Over centuries, the techniques evolved through cultural exchanges along trade routes like the Silk Road, leading to the diverse aromatic profiles we see today. During the 19th and 20th centuries, mass production began, making incense more accessible worldwide, yet traditional crafts persisted, especially in regions like India and Japan. At Malphas & Co, we honor this rich history by handcrafting our incense cones and sticks with meticulous care and traditional methods. We source high-quality natural ingredients, including resins, herbs, and essential oils, ensuring each piece is infused with authentic aromas. Our process involves blending, shaping, and drying the incense in small batches to preserve its purity and potency, allowing us to create products that are not only fragrant but also spiritually meaningful. By handcrafting our incense, we maintain a connection to ancient traditions while offering a unique, artisanal experience to our customers. This dedication to craftsmanship ensures that every cone and stick from Malphas & Co carries the heritage and aroma of centuries-old practices, reimagined for modern sensibilities. We believe that our handcrafted approach enhances the sensory experience, allowing users to connect with centuries of tradition and ritual through our carefully curated incense products.
