Handmade in India from carved stone, the Lotus Carved Charcoal Screen Burner pairs a wide, open lotus-petal carving with a removable metal screen that keeps charcoal or a burning cone contained and off the surface underneath. The petal detailing runs around the full rim, so the piece reads as a small sculpture even when nothing is lit.
Measuring 4 inches wide, 4 inches deep, and 1.5 inches high, this burner works with both charcoal discs for resin incense and standard incense cones, making it a flexible choice for anyone who switches between the two rather than settling on a single incense format.
The stone base and low profile make it a natural fit for a meditation corner or altar table, sitting flush rather than perched above the surface it rests on — useful for anyone building out a small, dedicated incense or resin corner rather than burning on the go.
Because each piece is carved by hand, no two burners come out identical — expect natural variation in color, texture, and exact finish from one to the next, the same variation you'd expect from any hand-carved stone piece rather than a molded one.
Cleanup is straightforward: let the burner cool completely, lift out the screen, brush away the spent charcoal or cone ash, and wipe the stone with a damp cloth if needed. Avoid submerging it in water, since stone can hold moisture longer than it looks like it does.
