Product Overview
A playful incense holder shaped like a banana, winner of the Social Products Award 2026. Crafted as part of the "BANANA BLACK" series—a collaboration between Dole's "Mottainai Banana Charcoal" project and FOOD STONE's circular material development technology—this piece transforms unmarketable bananas discarded on farms in the Philippines into charcoal, restructuring them into a stone-like texture. The deep jet-black shade derived from carbonized banana highlights the fragrance while making ash less conspicuous after use. The subtle white marble patterns floating within the black are natural designs created by natural ash components. It is a quiet product that weaves a story of circularity and sustainable beauty into your everyday rituals.
