This set is for games of incense appreciation. In these games, over several rounds, a host selects varieties of incense for their guests to savor and identify. Look at the tools—these are made from silver, ivory, and tortoiseshell. The lavishness of the pastime is reflected in the makie that embellishes every element of this set.
