Brass Tripod Incense Censer with Dragon Relief 13cm for Temple

Product Specification

Quick Detail

A solid brass three foot censer with a raised dragon relief around the body and a vented lid. About 13cm tall, it takes both incense sticks and cones and reads as a serious altar piece rather than a table accessory.

Product Features

• Cast in solid brass with a real altar weight
• Dragon relief cast around the bowl
• Pierced lid that releases smoke evenly
• Takes both incense sticks and cones
• Three foot form that sits steady on a cloth

Product Description

This censer follows the classic three foot form used on altars for centuries, with a rounded body raised on three short legs and a pierced lid that lets smoke out in slow ribbons. A dragon is cast in relief around the bowl, with the detail picked out by hand polishing so it stands proud of the background. Cast in solid brass and weighing close to seven hundred grams, it stays steady when placed on a cloth covered altar table. Both incense sticks and cones can be used, with the ash falling into the bowl below.

Product Advantage

Casting is followed by hand chasing to sharpen the dragon relief, then two stage polishing for a warm bronze tone. Lids are matched to their bowls before packing so the fit is clean, and each set is foam packed.

Product Application

• Home and temple altar use
• Meditation and prayer practice
• Studying and tea room decor
• Gift for housewarmings and festivals
• Temple supply and religious retail

A serious item for temple suppliers and retailers serving customers who maintain an altar at home. The solid weight differentiates it clearly from thin sheet metal censers at a similar price point.

FAQ

Q: Does it come with a lid?
Yes, a matching pierced brass lid is included.

Q: Can it be used outdoors?
It can, but brass will patina faster in damp air. A dry covered spot is better.

Q: How do I clean it?
Wipe with a soft dry cloth. Avoid abrasive pads, which dull the relief.
