Rooted in ancestral tradition, this Sahumerio Copal Incense Burner is thoughtfully handcrafted to support ceremonial burning, spiritual cleansing, and intentional ritual practices. Used for centuries across Mesoamerican cultures, the sahumerio is a sacred vessel designed to hold burning charcoal and resins, allowing aromatic smoke to rise as an offering, prayer, and energetic cleanser.
Traditionally used in Indigenous rituals throughout Mexico, sahumerios are essential tools in ceremonies involving copal, herbs, and sacred smoke, honoring ancestral knowledge and spiritual lineage passed down through generations. Each burner is handmade with care, reflecting the reverence and symbolism embedded in ritual fire and smoke.
The sahumerio is used to support practices focused on clearing stagnant or heavy energy, spiritual protection, blessing spaces, and restoring energetic balance. When copal or herbs are burned within it, the rising smoke is believed to carry intentions, prayers, gratitude, and remembrance to the spiritual realm, creating a bridge between the physical and spiritual worlds.
Traditionally, sahumerios are used during space cleansing rituals, ancestral offerings, meditation, altar work, and ceremonial moments of transition or intention-setting. They are also commonly used during DÃa de los Muertos, where copal is burned on altars and ofrendas to purify the space, guide ancestral spirits, and honor loved ones with reverence and love.
Designed for use with charcoal and natural resins or herbs, this sahumerio provides a stable and sacred vessel for ritual burning. Place lit charcoal inside the bowl and gently add copal resin or herbal blends, allowing the smoke to fill your space with intention and care.
Dimensions: Approximately 5.35 inches tall x 3.8 inches wide. As each sahumerio is handcrafted, natural variations in size, glaze, texture, color, and form are part of its unique character, making every piece one of a kind.
