Frankincense is a resin that has been used in spiritual practice all over the world for centuries. It is known for its purification properties and is powerful in removing negativity from the body, aura, psychic, and environment. It is said to hold great wisdom, warding off evil and negativity. 

Ayurvedic medicine has been using the Indian frankincense (Boswellia serrata) for thousands of years to treat arthritis, heal wounds, strengthen the female hormonal system, and protect against pathogenic microorganisms. According to Ayurveda, the daily burning of frankincense in the home helps maintain good health.

 My story with this magic resin began 40 years ago in a town on the Southern coast of India. 

My grandmother lived by the water in Kochi, Kerala. Every evening she would ceremonially smoke her home with frankincense resin.
It was a ritual I loved, it filled her home with a warm earthy scent -
a cleanse, purifying the space daily, and helped maintain one’s spiritual center. It was a place I found comfort in for many years.

Burning incense was a ceremony for me. As I got deeper into my spiritual practice and started traveling the world, that unforgettable scent still lingered in my mind. Everything I found since had an artificial smell that somehow did not feel natural - until I met a man from a village on the outskirts of my hometown of Kochi who was on his own quest, a little bit of an eccentric!
He would gather frankincense resin from forest produce, crush coconut shell, all using self-made prototypes in his backyard until he was able to create the nostalgia of my youth ...on a stick.

100% natural frankincense resin and coconut shell charcoal.
I was finally home and happy to share with the world this ceremonial smoke with ancient roots.

For designer Annah Chakola, Annahmol is inextricably linked to the cultural patrimony of her homeland - and the dualism inherent in her unique upbringing. World traveler and native daughter of Kerala, India, Annah is nourished by the sensuality of her homeland and the magical landscapes encountered in her adventures. Born to a family with over 150 years in the textile industry, it was her father,s death - and her mother's tenacity - that heralded Annah's exposure to the rich legacy of Indian craftsmanship with which Annahmol is inextricably linked. When her mother re-opened her father's store to ensure the family's economic survival, Annah and her brother joined their mother in her travels, meeting makers and artisans from all over the subcontinent. A seed was planted that would come to fruition years later in the form of Boho Gypsy, the predecessor to Annahmol. The wistful yearning that permeates Annah's work speaks of a deep, multi-generational connection to home, but it's a nostalgia forged in the fire of global influences. Having attended a British boarding school with an international student body, and leaving India for the United States at age 17, Annah is very much a "third culture kid "those youthful denizens of the world who belong everywhere - and nowhere - simultaneously. In the designer's native tongue of Malayalam, "mol " means daughter. Annahmol was a childhood nickname that clung so stubbornly to Chakola as she grew into young womanhood that she forsake it in a fit of teenage rebellion, like a snake moulting into a new skin. But the universe has a sense of humour. After years spent redefining herself and honing her craft, it was the heartache, triumph, adversity, loss, abundance, desire, darkness, and light, that revealed in turns a truth: identity is not sought, it is returned to. She was, and is, Annahmol. As David Bowie once said, getting older is the process of becoming who you were all along.
