“Very pretty! Description doesnt note its an incense holder”

So this is a very pretty little ornament, and Im glad I bought it. That said, a warning in case it comes back for any buyers: when I first received it I freaked out a bit thinking I was missing a piece. he center had bent down the green leaves at the top to cover the purple arch, and because the pink and red columns on either side have holes, I thought that there was a secondary art piece with the leaves that I could not find in the packing material. Finally I noticed that the leaves were bent down and I realized that this must actually be an incense holder, which the description doesnt note. I dont personally use incense, but that information would be useful for people who do.
