Swirl Incense Holder

This incense holder can also act as a taper candle and wood smoke stick holder.

Spirals are thought to signify the cycle of rebirth, as famously observed in ancient gravesites. Another interpretation associates the spiral with mother goddesses, indicative of secret chambers symbolic of femininity. Rather than signifying stagnation, this symbol stands for development and transformation. Change is unavoidable, from childhood to maturity and from aged to new. The spiral prods us to accept it, in place of shying away from our familiar customs and beliefs.
