This attractive glazed terracotta dish has been specially made by Peruvian artisans to hold palo santo logs. The logs sit in the central hole and the ash falls into the dish. You can use it while actively smudging or you can sit in down somewhere and let the log burn. This palo burner features a traditional black and off-white Inca design. It has been handmade in Peru using traditional pottery methods. As this is a hand-finished item minor imperfections can be expected, all part of its simple handmade charm.
Each burner comes with five palo santo logs. Each log has been hand-picked to perfectly fit the centre hole of the burner. When you are buying palo logs you will find that some logs will be too thick to fit these burners and others will be too thin. Both of these problems are easily solved. You can whittle down thick sticks with a sharp blade (palo santo is a soft wood and this is easy to do) and you can ‘glue’ thin sticks in place with a little bit of melted wax, although you really only need to do this if you want the sticks to stand upright while burning. Many thin sticks will stand loosely in the hole without needing wax to hold them in place.
Item dimensions: approximately 13cm across and 3cm high. Please note that we have very limited stock of these palo burners.
Our palo logs have been sustainably and ethically produced in Peru. Each log is roughly 10cm long but you can expect some variation in colour and shape. Most of these logs have a beautiful golden-blond colour, sometimes with attractive, visually-striking darker streaks, but some logs are a bit darker in colour than the ones shown in the photo. Some of them may also have small natural insect holes in them – an extra blessing from Mother Earth.
We also sell palo santo incense, oils and other palo santo smudging products. You can find our complete range of palo santo products here. It's definitely worth a look.
