8 cm soapstone incense holder with a lotus motif
A round 8 cm soapstone incense stand with a classic lotus motif carved into the top. The lotus is a well-known symbol of inner clarity and gradual opening, growing clean and radiant even from muddy water. Lighting an incense stick above it easily becomes a small, caring gesture of opening and release.
Hand-carved in India from natural soapstone, the piece weighs about 130 g, which gives it a very stable base for its small diameter. Each piece has unique shade variations and slight differences in carving depth.
How to use
Place a stick into the central hole, light the tip and blow out the flame so it smoulders. Ash falls onto the small tray area around the motif. Wipe the surface after each session to keep the lotus lines clean.
Where to place it
The 8 cm size is great for nightstands, small altars, reading corners or relaxation spots. Use it on a smooth, dry surface and avoid long-term placement in very humid rooms.
Care
Dust with a soft dry cloth. If ash dulls the surface, a lightly damp cloth restores the natural tone. Avoid bleach and solvent-based cleaners.
