An incense holder is a device used to securely hold incense sticks or cones while they burn. It is designed to catch the ash that falls as the incense smolders, preventing mess and ensuring safety. Incense holders come in various materials, including wood, metal, and ceramic, and can feature intricate designs or simple shapes. These holders are often used in practices related to meditation, yoga, or spiritual rituals, as the burning incense can create a calming atmosphere. They are available in many styles, from traditional to modern, allowing users to choose one that fits their decor or personal taste.
