Woodcense
One day, Nick Friedman of Woodcense and Duckpond Pottery noticed an aroma coming from the wood that he had leaned up against a hot surface created by fire. From this experience, Woodcense was born. Combining his love for nature and this discovery, Nick has handcrafted a wood diffuser kit that unlocks the aroma of each wood without the smoke. The pottery for the Woodcense Kits is made from clay gathered from the floor of the French Broad River Valley, where Nick's studio, Duckpond Pottery, is located. They also source a collection of native woods to diffuse in the kits.
