Upturned Daisy

Sculpted Soapstone
Incense Burner

This is a wonderfully weighty piece, made from a nice thick slab of gray soapstone. The stone has been expertly worked into the form of a daisy flower in full and apparently eternal bloom. Several holes to accomodate your favorite stick incense. You can also use this piece to burn cone incense, but there are no flat surfaces and so we don't recommend it as a cone burner.

Fair-Trade Statement:

Our supplier of this item gathers its wares from a network of manufacturers, each of which based on the Ghandian concept of cottage industry, fair trade, and ethical trade. India is the land of cottage industries, which means that production happens in a small family business at home, where the working conditions are set by the producers themselves.

One such cottage industry was set up when our supplier met a carpenter who did not have any machinery and was lacking work. He bought the machines for this man and started handing him designs for incense holders and other handicrafts. This succesful cottage industry is now in it's second generation, passing from father to son.
