Care & Maintenance
Care & Maintenance
- Daily Cleaning: For regular maintenance, we recommend using a soft, microfiber cloth dampened with water or a mild, pH-neutral detergent to remove surface oils. Never use abrasive pads, steel wool, or scouring powders. These will cause permanent scratches and dull the specific luster of the finish
- Disclaimer: Please note that the use of third-party cleaning agents or chemical coatings is at the user's discretion. Populate cannot be held responsible for changes in surface luster, discoloration, or adverse reactions caused by these substances. Always test a small, inconspicuous area first
Design & Inspiration
Design & Inspiration
The Bunga Tembusu range stems from an early morning spent beneath blooming Tembusu trees, captivated by their intricate blossoms and sweet fragrance. Each laser-etched floral motif translates that sensory experience into metal, completing the series' narrative by pairing the incense holder’s robust trunk form with the very blossom that gives it its name
