This is a very cute item, much smaller than what I was expecting, but as it is designed to be used with joss stick incense, it certainly does the job. The inner area measures approximately half an inch in diameter. It is a fairly heavy item which comes in two parts. There is the small bowl itself, which forms the base and then there is the part that actually holds the sticks. This portion holds 7 different diameter sticks, from something that is very tiny (I've personally never seen sticks that small, but perhaps they exist). The largest in the center is about 1/16th of an inch. I believe I have seen joss sticks that were larger than this will hold, but this appears to be something that is very portable; The main reason I purchased it is because I have some Japanese style sticks that don't have a wooden portion that is slightly smaller than the main portion so the entirety of the stick is incense. Normally these are sent with a small tile that y the incense is inserted into. Unfortunately, the ash winds up all over the place. This item if the incense is inserted absolutely perpendicular and especially close to the center, actually does a decent job of catching the ash. If it were slightly larger, it may actually be able to catch all the ash, but this item is extremely inexpensive and it actually does do a reasonable job for its purpose. I paid about $1.15 for this item and received it about 20 days after payment, so I am pretty satisfied with it.Read full review
