sticks

In the study of ancient Chinese scholars, incense sticks also played an important role. For literati, incense sticks were part of their elegant life. They lit a stick of sandalwood in their study, letting the faint fragrance inspire their literary creation and cultivate their sentiments. Along with the flow of ink and wash, the fresh fragrance interweaves into the spiritual home of literati. When guests visit, the host will also burn incense as a courtesy. This not only represents the host's elegance and love of learning, but is also an indispensable part of ancient Chinese etiquette. The smoke of incense is like the humble and generous Chinese demeanor.
