This is the Pisces mini bowl, made to hold a stick of incense, or the rings and earrings you take off at the end of the day.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWhat you'll notice\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eTwo fish drawn in fine gold line, swimming nose to tail at the centre, with a small hole at the heart of the design that holds an incense stick upright.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAround them, a ring of twelve segments, each marked with its own constellation in gold, edged with a border of tiny gold dots.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe glossy lacquered finish catches the light and gives the deep blue a glassy look.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe mango wood frames the artwork in a warm, honey-brown tone, with its grain showing along the sides.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe bowl is shallow and compact, so it sits easily on a desk, bedside table or shelf.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eMango wood and a lacquered centre\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe body is solid mango wood, left visibly natural, so the grain and shading differ a little from one bowl to the next. The painted centre is sealed under a glossy lacquer. That finish is easy to wipe clean, but keep it away from standing water and soaking.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eHow to use it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSlide an incense stick into the central hole and light the tip. Let it flame for a few seconds, then blow it out so the end glows and the smoke begins to rise. Incense sticks usually burn for roughly thirty to sixty minutes, though this varies from stick to stick, so check the pack you are using. As the stick burns down, the ash falls into the bowl. Always burn incense in a ventilated room and never leave it unattended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBetween sticks, tip the ash out and wipe the bowl with a dry cloth. Because the incense hole is small, the bowl suits slim sticks best. It also works as a small dish for rings, earrings and other little treasures, with the stars watching over them.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003ePisces, the two fish\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePisces is the twelfth sign of the zodiac, traditionally pictured as two fish swimming in opposite directions while tied together. In astrological tradition it is the sign of the dreamer, associated with imagination, empathy and a love of quiet, reflective moments. The twelve constellation segments around the border nod to the wider zodiac wheel, so the bowl reads as a small piece of celestial artwork as much as a practical dish.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails and what's included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou receive one Pisces mini bowl in mango wood with lacquered, hand-finished-looking artwork. Incense sticks are not included.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eA gift with more than one use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt suits anyone born under Pisces (roughly 19 February to 20 March), and anyone who enjoys a little ritual at the end of the day. It is useful on day one, pretty on a shelf, and personal in the way a star-sign gift should be.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eCommon questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it come with incense?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nNo. The bowl is sold on its own, so you can choose your own favourite scent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it hold anything other than incense?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes. The shallow dish works well for rings, earrings and other small keepsakes, and the incense hole simply sits unused in the middle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo the other star signs come in the same design?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe same mini bowl is made with a different sign at its centre, so you can choose one that matches the person you are buying for.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SHAMTAM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67710309728570,"sku":"SSISH-02","price":6.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0756\/8307\/0266\/files\/stars-sign-mini-bowl-incense-stick-holder-pisces-cover.png?v=1792130845","url":"https:\/\/shamtam.com\/products\/stars-sign-mini-bowl-incense-stick-holder-pisces","provider":"SHAMTAM","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
