## About this gift

With a smiling skeleton, long flowing black hair and skulls wrapped in bones, Calavera's Offering brings Day of the Dead style to a gothic home. A backflow burner is an incense holder made for backflow cones, whose thick smoke flows downwards instead of rising.

Intricate decorations cover the skeleton's face. A hole in the cone holder lets the smoke pass through the skull's head and run down the neck and ribs. It then pools around the ribs, skulls and hair at the base. To see the effect, you'll need backflow incense cones.

In Mexican tradition, the Day of the Dead honours loved ones who have died, and calaveras, or decorated skulls, are among its best-known images. Light a cone and watch the smoke cascade through the figure. A dark, atmospheric piece for a gothic collection or anyone who loves unusual incense holders.
