Description
🪄 Description
This elegant cobra isn’t just for decoration — it actually breathes smoke.
It’s designed for backflow incense cones, where the smoke flows downward through a small hole at the bottom of the cone instead of rising upward.
Inside the model runs a narrow internal channel directly from the top incense holder to the mouth of the snake. This creates a smooth, controlled stream of smoke that makes the cobra look eerily alive.
⚙️ Technical details

The weighted base reduces the chance of tipping over, while the hidden lower compartment provides a storage space for your incense cones or accessories. This storage insert is printed in a thick line spiral mode.
🔥 Usage
- Insert a backflow incence stone in the top hole if you have one.
- If you don't have a incence stone for backflow (one with a hole in the center) then you can use a few washers or a nut.
- Place a backflow incense cone on top of the stone.
- Light it and wait a few seconds for the smoke to flow downward.
Watch as the cobra slowly exhales smoke from its mouth — calm and mesmerizing.
Alternatives:
- Regular incense cones also work (they just won’t produce smoke from the mouth).
- You can use a metal nut (~20 mm) or a stack of washers as a holder, as long as there’s a hole in the center for the smoke to pass through.
⚠️ Safety
Never leave burning incense or candles unattended.
PLA may soften under heat — use common sense.
Using washers, fill up to the top of the hole. this will create a safe barrier between any heat and the PLA.
