Lotus Incense Burner and Votive T-Light Candle Holder Meditation Flower Buddha

I wish I could give this a better rating because it looks really cool and that's a big deal to me, but honestly the thing kind of sucks for its intended purpose. First of all, I know that you can't expect it to catch ALL of the ash falling off the incense, but you should at least be able to expect it catches like 90% of it, right? Wrong.It depends on the stick of incense, but sometimes half of the ash ends up on the surface surrounding the burner. If the think was like, maybe 30% bigger than it is, I doubt that would be a problem. But since that's not the case, expect to have to clean up a bunch of ash from whatever you decide to sit this on.The other beef I have with this is that the only hole small enough for the sticks to stand up vertically is the center hole. All of the other ones are larger, shallower holes, so when you put a stick in them they tend to lean all the way over the side of the thing, so you're only going to catch like a tiny bit of ash while the rest of it falls all over the place. If you don't mind placing this on like a plate or a flat dish or some kind to catch all the ash, that's cool and all, but otherwise if you happen to want to burn more than one stick at a time, you're gonna have a lot of annoying clean up to do.That said, this is the best incense burner I've found so far because all of them seem to have the same problems. Maybe someday someone will come along and invent the perfect incense burner, but it's not this one.

I really wish that I invented this. This is perfect for the smokeless incense sticks that I buy on Amazon. The only downside is that the tiny hole can get clogged. This can be fixed by using a needle to clean out plugged holes. FYI I use my holder several times a day and have to clean it once a week (this takes seconds).

Ordered two of these for my wife without expectation. What a lovely surprise to receive such a fine product. Quite solid and heavy, rich dark color, unexpected detail in the flower petals so all around a quality piece.Functionally it works quite well. In other reviews I've seen complaints that some ash escapes the vessel and that's true. However, I've never seen an incense stick burning which didn't allow some ash to escape. This one seems to allow the least amount of ash of any burner I've ever used. The stick stands up perfectly straight due to a deep center hole. Some times the very top ash may spill but once the stick is going all the mess falls straight down into the center of the lotus.No problem fitting in a tea light candle either and produces a lovely effect of a lotus blossom flower with a fire core. Recommended and very much enjoyed. Will be ordering more for personal use and gifts.

This is a sturdy yet delicate and lovely lotus incense/tea light holder. I love it and it sits on my coffee table and is used almost daily!!Great buy, great price and packaged safely.

I love it! It's really beautiful and holds my cone incense well. The stick incense it's okay, but the ash falls outside of the burner, doesn't bother me, but it could bother someone else.

It's a beautiful lotus, though smaller than I thought it'd be. With the Chinese incense sticks, ash falls from the sides when I cut the bottom and leave much - I have to cut each stick of my grandpa's left-over incense, so it's not always that ash falls out of the holder. And I can only put one stick at a time because the rest of the wholes aren't perforated, like one of the reviews mentioned.But out of all the incense burners I've seen, this one is the shape I've liked the best,

Catches the incense ashes which is great.Looks very nice and solidBuild quality is really good Has a little cushion on the bottom so it does not scratch whatever you put it onLooks beautiful with a little candle

Juste parfait, je l'utilise presque tout les jours!

Perfect incense holder. Thanks!

As advertised, made of resin. Nice design and does a beautiful job of holding the incense and usually catches most of the ash.

Beautiful! Great quality, looks great on my mantle
