Quick facts

About the Om symbol

Om is one of the most meaningful symbols in spiritual practice and meditation traditions, and many people like to burn incense nearby to set a calm tone for meditation, yoga, or quiet reflection at home. As a small carved accent, it also works as a simple decorative piece for a shelf or altar corner, whether or not a cone is currently burning.

How to use it

Place a lit incense cone in the recessed well and let it burn on its own — no need to hold or tend it once it's lit, just set it on a stable, heat-safe surface.

Care & safety

Handcrafted from wood, so grain and finish vary slightly piece to piece — keep it dry and away from water. Let the burner cool fully and empty any ash after each use, and never leave burning incense unattended.
