Soapstone Small Lotus Flower Incense Stand 7.5x2.5cm - Chakra Colours
The lotus is one of the most recognised symbols of the East: rising from murky water to open into a perfect bloom, it stands for clarity and spiritual awakening. This small 7.5 cm hand-carved soapstone holder captures that image, with petals painted in the seven chakra colours surrounding a central incense hole.
Designed for tight spaces
The compact 7.5 x 2.5 cm footprint is intentional. It fits on a desk corner, a bedside shelf, or a small altar without dominating the space — present, but never in the way.
The seven chakra colours
The petals follow the traditional chakra palette: red (root), orange (sacral), yellow (solar plexus), green (heart), blue (throat), indigo (third eye), and violet (crown). Whether you work consciously with your energy centres or simply enjoy the symbolism, the meaning is woven into the piece.
Soapstone character
Soapstone is a soft natural stone, prized in India for centuries for its carvability. Its slightly waxy feel lends the name. Because each block is unique, the shade and veining of every holder differ — no two lotuses are alike.
Care
Handle gently — soapstone can chip if dropped. Let the stand cool before emptying ash. Dust with a soft dry cloth; a slightly damp cloth works for deeper cleaning. Do not scrub the painted petals or use harsh chemicals.
