Charcoal Resin Incense Burner Jar, Crown Chakra

Smoke feels different when it begins in a small, deliberate vessel. This purple brass incense burner is made for resin incense and charcoal tablets, holding the glowing charcoal on a removable grate so ash can fall neatly into the jar below. The golden patterning gives it a ceremonial look without making it feel heavy or ornate.

What the purple brass jar brings to the ritual

• The deep purple colour links naturally with Crown chakra practice, bringing a quiet focal point to an altar, shelf or meditation space.
• Golden detailing catches the light as the smoke rises, adding warmth to the cooler purple finish.
• The brass body gives the jar a satisfying presence in the hand before use, while the raised base helps it sit with poise.
• The removable grate keeps the charcoal above the base of the container, letting spent ash drop through as it burns.
• It is made for resin and charcoal tablets, giving loose incense a proper place to smoulder rather than scatter.

Purple brass, handmade in India

The burner is made from brass and finished in a rich purple colour with golden decorative patterns. It is handmade in India, with a slightly higher base that gives the jar a more lifted, altar-like stance.

Using resin with charcoal

Place the charcoal tablet on the removable grate, light it until it glows, then allow the surface to ash over before adding a small pinch of resin. Loose resin and powdered incense do not self-light, so the charcoal provides the steady heat that releases their smoke.

Add resin sparingly at first. A little is often enough to scent the room, and adding more gradually keeps the smoke easier to manage.

Heat care for safe burning

Incense burners become very hot in use. Always place this jar on a heat-resistant base, keep it away from flammable objects, and do not touch or move it while the charcoal is burning.

After use, let the charcoal and ash cool completely before emptying the container. Wipe the brass with a dry cloth once cool, and avoid leaving residue to build up around the grate.

Crown chakra meaning

In the yogic chakra system, the Crown chakra is associated with the top of the head and with contemplation, awareness and spiritual connection. Purple is often used as its colour in modern chakra practice, which is why this jar suits intention-setting, meditation spaces and quiet resin rituals. The burner does not need to be elaborate to feel meaningful; its role is simply to hold the heat, contain the ash, and give the moment a clear centre.

Weight and included piece

The burner weighs 120 g. It includes the brass incense jar and its removable grate for charcoal tablets and resin incense.

A thoughtful ritual gift

This is a considered gift for someone who already enjoys resin incense, keeps a small altar, or likes meaningful objects with a practical use. The purple and gold finish makes it especially suited to chakra-themed practice or a calm corner for evening ritual.

Common questions

Can I use this with incense sticks?

Does resin incense need charcoal?
Yes. Loose resin and powdered incense do not burn on their own. They need a lit charcoal tablet or another suitable heat source to release their smoke.
