Ornate Censer Incense Burner

Floral patterns cover this ornate brass censer, which has a vented lid and a carved wooden handle for carrying it. It is made from solid brass and burns charcoal with resins, or incense cones.

The wide base keeps it steady, and the engraving is detailed enough for it to stand as a decorative piece on an altar or shelf when it is not lit.

Setting it up

Light a charcoal tablet with tongs and let it settle into the container until it glows and turns grey at the edges, then sprinkle a little resin or loose incense on top. Incense cones can be lit and placed inside without charcoal.

Use it safely

• Charcoal tablets get extremely hot: light them with tongs, never by hand, and only in a heat-resistant container.
• Use in a well-ventilated room, on a stable, heat-resistant surface.
• Never leave burning charcoal or incense unattended, and keep it away from children, pets and anything flammable.
• Let the container and ash cool completely before touching or emptying it.
