hibi's SOW Wooden Case Hinoki is a handmade wooden box, made to perfectly store one box of your favourite hibi incense while travelling or at home. Turn the case upside down to create a small space to place the cardboard tray with its mat on, light the fragrance and enjoy. Carefully crafted by hand in Japan, the box is made from solid hinoki wood that feels almost weightless in the hand, with a beautifully soft and smooth finish.
Project SOW is a collaboration between hibi and aspiring creators from all over Japan, aiming to modernize traditions together and keeping them alive, while retaining local cultures that they have inherited.
At Misc Store we also carry hibi's SOW Wooden Case Sakura, which has a warmer colored texture.

To preserve the texture of solid wood, no coating is applied to protect the surface.
hibi x Misc Store Amsterdam
hibi's story starts with two traditional industries in the Hyogo Prefecture of Japan; matches and incense — the incense of Awaji Island and the matches of Harima.
These two traditional industries first encountered each other in 2011. The collaboration started with the idea of an incense that could be lit like striking a match, and was followed by 3 years of trial and error. As Japanese incense is generally very brittle, a clever solution had to be created. A precise recipe of incense and washi pulp was developed: an aromatic product with properties of strength and fragrance, which does not break even when struck like a match.
The names of products and packaging were developed to convey the sensibility of today’s Japan. All those things were ‘designs’ to create a new way of enjoying fragrance.

About hibi
hibi means ‘day to day’, or daily, in Japanese. It was given with the hope that you will keep hibi incense around you every day and freely enjoy its fragrance, matching each day’s mood or occasion. The logo’s design combines two of the Chinese character ‘日’ (day) set next to each other.
