The symbol on the dish
This dish carries the Triple Moon motif at its centre, picked out in warm gold against a deep purple enamel background. The Triple Moon represents the three phases of the Moon — waxing, full and waning — and appears in many goddess traditions as a symbol of the cycles of life, growth and reflection. The purple-and-gold combination gives the piece a soft, slightly mystical character.
How it is used
The dish is sized for incense sticks across the rim and for cones, tealights or small candles in the centre. It also works well as a small offering plate on a quiet altar, as a saucer for a single candle in the evening, or as a catch-all for crystals and small treasures on a shelf. The three legs lift the dish gently off the surface to protect wood from heat.
Material and origin
The dish is made in India from aluminium with a baked enamel finish, which gives both strength and the rich, glossy colour. The piece weighs around 200 g, sitting stably on a surface yet remaining easy to reposition when you rearrange the shelf.
Care
Wipe the dish with a soft, dry cloth between uses. For sticky residues, use a slightly damp cloth with a mild detergent and dry the dish fully before storing. Avoid abrasive sponges and harsh chemical cleaners so the enamel and the gold detailing keep their glow over the long term.
