Turtle Incense Holder Brass Verdigris Large
Warm brass, cool to the touch, gathers the gentle curl of incense into a quiet ritual. Handcrafted in India—where brasswork and daily incense have accompanied homes and temples for centuries—this turtle-shaped burner brings a steady, grounded presence to your space. 🌿
Cast metal with a verdigris patina gives the piece an antique depth: a dark brown base with soft green highlights along the raised details. The domed “shell” sits on sturdy legs, with a finely carved head and a small rear tail. Lift the removable lid to find pierced cutouts—floral, leaf-like, and teardrop shapes—topped with an ornate looped finial. Geometric reliefs echo a turtle’s hexagonal shell, framed by triangles and rows of dots; the textured contrast makes the pattern glow subtly as smoke drifts through. Across many traditions, the turtle symbolizes longevity, steadiness, and wisdom—an everyday reminder to move with care and patience. 🐢
How to use
- Place the burner on a heat-safe, level surface in a ventilated area.
- Lift the lid, set a lit incense cone (or a small bed of ash with a resin or pellet) inside, and let it ember.
- Replace the lid so the cutouts align; allow the smoke to breathe through the patterns. Cool fully before handling.
A thoughtful gift for anyone who enjoys unhurried moments and handcrafted objects. 🕯️
