With a styling reminiscent of the ancient Byzantine empire, this incense burner is a wonderful piece for your altar or home. Standing upon a 2 3/4" base, perforated in a decorative design, the gold-toned metal rises up then from four beveled legs that support the wider burner. This burner, resting at approximately 3" in diameter, contains a red tray that can be seen through the perforated metal, providing a wonderful accent to the gold hue. This tray is not only a decorative feature, however. It is designed to hold your charcoal and powder, resin, or granular incense as it burns and then help provide ease of cleaning as it can be removed. The lid, punctured with a design that allows fragrant smoke to escape even as it lets air in, tapers sharply from the width of the burner to a fluted handle that extends above, providing an overall height of 6 3/4" tall. Combining function and style, it is a wonderful piece for those that might want a little bit of the Byzantium flare in their home.
