Soapstone incense plate - heraldic motifs, 10 cm

Artisanal technique and material:

These incense plates are made from soapstone, a stone known for its softness, which facilitates artisanal carving. This material allows for meticulous manual work to carve and engrave the motifs. Soapstone is a material traditionally used in India for the creation of decorative and functional objects.

Decorative motifs and coloring:

Each incense plate features distinctive engraved and colored designs. The Dragon model shows a dragon snake with a heraldic design and a vibrant color combination. The Flower model features a stylized flower with petals in various shades reminiscent of a heraldic pattern. The Tree model incorporates a tree of life with color work that adds a touch of joy to the piece. The Red Tree model, for its part, is characterized by a tree of life entirely in reddish tones. The motifs have been hand-painted with vivid colors, which clearly differentiate from the natural tone of the soapstone.

Use:

These pieces are designed to hold incense sticks, collecting the ash on their surface. They constitute a functional and decorative accessory suitable for any space, providing a distinctive aesthetic touch.
