Japanese Buddhist Incense Coils

This is a set of incense coils in a paper box. It contains 6 incense coils. There are words on the box: Incense Coils. The scent of the incense sticks is said to feed the deceased and purify them, and the smoke delivers their prayers and thoughts to their ancestors and the dead. 
The instructions on the box state the following: “First, ignite the product, and then hang it on the hanger in a bell-shaped manner so that the spiral ring becomes horizontal. This product is designed for a 12-hour duration, so it may extinguish after 12 hours from ignition. Therefore, please replace it as soon as possible when necessary.”
