Ancient Wisdom handcrafts this compact Palo Santo heater from teak wood in Indonesia, with a Hamsa design carved above a metal insert. The insert holds a small piece of Palo Santo wood, gently warmed by a tealight beneath. Palo Santo has been burned for centuries in South American tradition, valued for its sweet, resinous scent.
The Story Behind the Design
The Hamsa is a hand shaped symbol found across Middle Eastern and North African traditions, generally understood as a symbol of protection and good fortune. It's carved into the teak wood directly above the metal insert.
