An overridden shadow pass allows light to pass through the panes as though transparent, and a simple fresnel modified by the material's existing roughness blends the emissive to imitate light-reflecting interior walls and refraction.

To save on the performance cost from shadow-casting lights and full PBR, for most of the incense holders I used emissives to imitate the diffuse component of light. I used an additive, pointlight-imitating material on simple meshes.
