Palo Santo Holder Teak Wood Yin Yang Teardrop

• The teardrop silhouette gives the piece a soft, flowing shape on a shelf, altar or side table.
• A shallow round well helps gather light ash, keeping the ritual tidier than resting wood on an open dish.
• The black metal support lifts the Palo Santo above the teak, giving the smoke space to curl and move.
• The Yin Yang motif adds a quiet symbolic centre without making the design feel busy.
• The golden-brown teak grain brings natural warmth, so it looks settled even when not in use.

Made from teak wood with a metal support, the holder has a smooth, rounded body and a visible Yin Yang detail on the top surface. The design is shaped around contrast: warm wood and dark metal, curved form and straight support, stillness and smoke.

Light your Palo Santo stick, let the flame go out, then rest the smouldering end securely on the metal support. The shallow well catches light ash, but always place the holder on a heat-safe surface and never leave burning or smouldering wood unattended.

After use, allow everything to cool fully before emptying ash. Wipe the teak with a dry cloth and keep it away from prolonged damp.

In Taoist thought, Yin Yang represents complementary forces held in balance: dark and light, quiet and active, inward and outward. On a Palo Santo holder, it works as a simple visual reminder of the pause built into the ritual. Palo Santo is often called holy wood and has long been used by native South American communities in ceremonial settings. Here, that South American aromatic tradition meets a symbol from East Asian philosophy, held in a piece made in Indonesia.
