Brass Incense Holder, 3/4 Inch 9 Holes

A plain brass disc that does one job well: holding a stick of incense upright and steady while it burns. Standing about three-quarters of an inch tall, it carries nine holes of varying sizes so it accepts thin and thick sticks alike, and its weight keeps it from tipping mid-burn. Set it on a shelf, desk, or altar, slot in a stick, and let the warm brass anchor your daily practice.

The Spiritual Significance

Burning incense to cleanse a space and carry intention is one of the oldest spiritual acts there is, and the holder is simply the steady hand that keeps the stick upright while the smoke does the work. Brass has long been linked in folk and ceremonial practice with the Sun, warmth, and abundance, a fitting metal for a tool you return to every day. The holder carries no power of its own; it supports the cleansing and intention you bring to your practice.

How To Use

Set the holder on a flat, heat-safe surface, away from curtains, paper, and anything that can catch. Light the tip of a stick, let it flame for a few seconds, then gently blow it out so it glows and releases smoke. Slot the bare end into one of the holes and let it burn. Never leave burning incense unattended, keep it clear of drafts and flammable items, and let the stick burn out fully before clearing the ash once everything has cooled.

Frequently Asked Questions

What incense does it hold? Standard stick incense. The nine holes are sized differently so it fits both thin and thick sticks.

Does it catch the ash? No, it is a stick holder rather than an ash catcher; set it on a small dish or tray if you want to catch the falling ash.

How big is it? A compact disc about three-quarters of an inch tall, easy to place anywhere on an altar or shelf.

Why nine holes? The varying hole sizes let you seat sticks of different diameters securely in the same holder.

How do I keep it clean? Let it cool, brush away the ash, and wipe with a soft cloth; brass polish restores the shine if you prefer it over a natural patina.
