Incense Tray Rack

An incense tray rack is a holder designed to contain and collect ash and debris from burning incense, typically stick incense, cone incense, or coil incense. They serve both a practical and aesthetic purpose, protecting surfaces from damage and enhancing the ambiance of a space.

• Ceramic: Often glazed and decorated, ceramic racks are visually appealing and easy to clean. They can be more fragile than wood.
• Metal: Typically made of brass, iron, or stainless steel. Metal racks are durable, heat-resistant, and offer a modern or minimalist look.
