Each incense holder is unique. The Wabi-Sabi incense holders are handmade by Jessica Dardar for Thelma Paris. Jessica is a ceramic craftsman who has her workshop in Paris. The incense holder is made of chamotte stoneware covered with transparent enamel which gives it a warm color that will blend with your interiors. The hole for placing the stick is ideally located on the side, which allows the ash to settle in the center without difficulty.

Thelma Paris was born in May 2021 at the end of confinement with the ambition to offer its users a “place of their own”. During this period, I ran out of my stock made up of my travels to Asia from where I brought back incense sticks, mainly from China. I then went in search of a product from France that would be both of high quality and modern. Having not found the product I was looking for, I wanted to create it.
Thelma Paris incense sticks are produced in Japan, a country with unique and ancestral know-how in incense. The sticks are made by Japanese master craftsmen with high quality raw materials harvested with respect for the environment from which they are taken. These sticks made in Tokyo have the peculiarity of emitting little smoke and not having a bamboo rod. These are the ingredients used and in particular the bark of Tabu wood that allows resins and other bark to be agglomerated without the use of bamboo stalks. Thus the fragrances are released delicately, without producing smoke and de facto without the smell of smoke. This particularity makes it easy to consume in small spaces. Finally, without smoke, the stick fits more easily into our daily life in a modern way.
The ambition of Thelma Paris is to offer genuine meaningful products which will take you into a space of your own and bring a peaceful moment in time to every customer.
