Om Hanging Brass Incense Burner, Three Chain, 7.5 x 14cm

Product Overview

A small polished brass censer with the Om symbol on its body and star-shaped cut-outs that let smoke escape as the incense burns. It hangs from three chains gathered into a single loop, so it can be suspended from a hook or set down on a tray. Use it with resin on charcoal, incense cones or loose blends. It measures approximately 7.5 x 14cm.

The Story Behind the Design

Om is a sacred syllable in Hindu, Buddhist and Jain traditions, chanted at the opening and close of prayers and recitations. The Mandukya Upanishad is devoted entirely to it, describing its sound as containing past, present and future. As a written symbol it appears on temple doors, home shrines and prayer objects across South Asia.

An Auro & Co Moment

Before the first class of the morning, you hook the little brass censer by the studio door and drop a few grains of resin onto the glowing charcoal. Smoke curls out through the stars on its sides. By the time students arrive, the room smells faintly of frankincense and the Om on the brass has caught the early light.

FAQ

What can I burn in it?
It is made for resin on a charcoal disc, incense cones or loose incense blends.

How do I use it safely?
Burn charcoal or cones on a heat-resistant surface or hang it well clear of curtains, shelves and anything flammable. The brass gets hot, so let it cool before touching the body or lid, and never leave it burning unattended.

Can it stand on a table instead of hanging?
Yes. It can rest on a heat-resistant tray or dish, with the chains gathered beside it.

How do I keep the brass bright?
Wipe it with a soft dry cloth once cool. Brass darkens naturally over time, and many people like that softer tone.
