​Expanding on its offerings, South Korean streetwear label Lost Management Cities has partnered with craft studio Quispiam Habilis on a limited incense chamber.

Referencing its Asian heritage, the Oriental Medicine Incense Chamber is a representation of the upper portion found on a male acupuncture model. The ceramic piece features a glossed white base accented brushes of black that bring out the subtle facial features found on the sculpt.

Contrast color markings note landmarks on the head that see the flow of “qi” energy in Hanja (Chinese characters incorporated into the Korean language) and provide points for incense smoke to escape. Limited to just 15 units, LMC branding on the forehead and sculpted co-branding on the base accompany the acupuncture point details. Finally, each chamber is numbered to highlight the limited edition nature of the release.

Priced at ₩280,000 KRW (approximately $232 USD), the LMC x Quispiam Habilis Oriental Medicine Incense Chamber is available now exclusively at Lost Management Cities’ Hongdae flagship. While the accompanying Oriental Medicine T-shirt is available now at LMC locations and online.

In case you missed it, CASETiFY recently tapped NEIGHBORHOOD for its latest co-lab collection.
