Incense is said to help stimulate our spiritual brain, clear negative energy and deepen concentration. Get ready to zen out with our top 7 gorgeous incense holders to suit all styles and budgets.

1. Classic ceramic — $33
For an incense holder that will never go out of style, it’s hard to go past a classic ceramic piece. Even better if it’s handmade, like this speckled one we spied on Etsy.
Handmade pieces mean each one is unique and special. We adore the simplicity of this design. In fact, Gina has this very incense holder in her home.

2. Elegant glass pebble — $65
If you haven’t yet discovered the incredible pieces from Maison Balzac, prepare to fall in love. We certainly did with their delicate collection of handblown glass incense holders.
Available in a range of different colours (we adore the white or amber glass) these glass pebbles are decor pieces in their own right.

3. Smoked brass — $75
What we love most about researching these types of articles for you is that we discover so many hidden gems ourselves. Who knew you could buy such gorgeous incense holders on The Iconic?! Like this little stunner.
Its sleek, cylindrical design just oozes sophistication and also acts as a catcher for the incense ash. Sexy and practical — our favourite combo 😉 The incense holder is also removable, making it a versatile decor piece for the home.

4. Modern retro eggcup — $40
For more of a modern retro vibe, we couldn’t go past the fun design from Lightly on Aura Home. The burnt rust colour is our pick, but it also comes in a neutral sand colour, or gorgeous brass.

5. Organic waves — $41
For a classic style with a bit of a twist (or should we say ‘wave’) we love this unique handmade incense holder from a local ceramicist we discovered on Etsy. This style of incense burner will also catch the ash as it falls so it’s beautiful and functional.

6. Delicate brass and crystal — $89
The Maho Sensory brass and Green Aventurine crystal incense holder set our hearts a flutter. It combines two of our favourite things… crystals and incense. The minimalist design features brass plate and crystal holder and is just too beautiful for words.
Excuse us a moment while we ‘add to cart’…
