About this product
Smoke moving through carved wood
- The Hamsa shape gives the burner a calm, open silhouette, with a rounded hollow at the centre for the falling smoke.
- Carved floral and scroll details catch the light across the palm and fingers, adding depth even when it is not in use.
- The wood has a grey-brown washed finish, with natural-looking grain visible across the raised holder and base.
- Used with a backflow cone, the smoke falls rather than rises, creating a misty pool in the central recess.
- It suits moments when you want incense to feel present and watched, not simply burning in the background.
Mango wood with a raised cone holder
The burner is made from mango wood and shaped as a large Hamsa, with a raised holder set above the central bowl. The carved surface gives it a tactile, decorative feel, while the broad base helps it sit securely on a flat, heat-safe surface.
How the backflow effect works
Place a backflow incense cone on the top holder and light it according to the cone instructions. Backflow cones are designed with a channel that lets the smoke sink through the cone and fall downwards, so ordinary incense cones will not create the same cascade.
Still air matters. Draughts, damp cones or an uneven surface can interrupt the flow, so place the burner somewhere sheltered and let the smoke gather naturally.
Placement and care for wood
Use on a stable, heat-resistant surface, away from curtains, papers and anything easily marked by smoke. Never leave burning incense unattended.
After use, let the burner cool fully before removing ash or residue. Wipe the wood gently with a dry cloth and avoid soaking it.
The Hamsa in context
The Hamsa is a hand-shaped symbol found across Middle Eastern, North African, Jewish and Islamic visual traditions, often associated with protection, blessing and watchfulness. Here, the open palm becomes part of the incense ritual itself: smoke gathers in the centre of the hand, softening the carved lines and making the object feel quietly animated. It is a decorative piece first, but one with a recognisable symbolic language behind its form.

★★★★★ SHAMTAM customerGlad I gave it a chance
I was worried by some of the negative reviews, but I'm glad I gave this a chance. It is beautiful, arrived safely and in one piece. The cones are large, and the smoke drifts beautifully down the platforms forming a waterfall effect....exactly as I hoped. Even a slight draft will affect this though, so find a nice quiet

★★★★★ SHAMTAM customerA great idea.... but...
I bought the green incense waterfall burner which looks aesthetically pleasing. I bought this as a gift and thought I best try it before giving it, because the reviews were a mixed bag. When I opened the bag of scented cones there wasn't much scent. I chose the lavender coloured cone but it didn't smell like lavender b
