The lotus grows from mud to bloom clean on the water, which is why it symbolises purity and awakening in Buddhist and Hindu art. Its metal finish is decorative; keep it dry to stop marks forming. From the maker: This small Tibetan-style incense burner is hand-crafted from brass in India and decorated with a sacred lotus motif. Its antique verdigris finish gives it a distinctive aged patina and plenty of character. Incense & Smudge. One incense holder. ## Traditions (belief, not health claims) Backflow cones have a hollow core: the cooling smoke is heavier than air, so it sinks and pours over the burner's channels. Incense holders have taken many forms, from Chinese bronze censers to the boat-shaped ash catchers of Indian homes. Traditional meanings are offered for interest and reflection, not as a health claim. ## How to use - Never leave a lit flame unattended, and keep it away from curtains, children and pets. - Use backflow cones for the waterfall effect; ordinary cones and sticks smoke upward. - Stand on a heat-proof base away from draughts, which break up the flow of smoke. - Empty ash once cool. - Gifting idea: pair it with a matching crystal or a holder for a ready-made ritual gift. - Journalling idea: note the date, the moon phase and what you wished for, and look back a month later. - Storage: keep spares somewhere cool and dark so colours and scents stay fresh. ## Care - Wipe resin build-up with a damp cloth once cool; a cotton bud reaches small channels. ## Policies - Delivery: UK delivery £3.95, free over £40, 2–5 working days.
