Set of Fatima's Hand and chakra incense holders in soapstone
This set of seven incense holders, hand-carved in soapstone, features the design of the Hand of Fatima with a chakra symbol engraved and colored on each piece. They represent the seven main chakras in a variety of vibrant colors.
Main features:
- Material: Soapstone
- Origin: India
- Format: Set of 7 individual incense holders
- Approximate size of each piece: 9 cm x 6 cm x 1 cm
Material and artisanal technique:
Each incense holder is carved from soapstone, also known as steatite, a material prized for its ease of carving. The manufacturing process is manual, which gives each piece a unique character, the result of artisanal work on natural stone.
Motif and symbolism:
The format of each incense holder represents the Hand of Fatima, a symbol with a meaning of protection. In the center of each hand, the symbol of one of the seven main chakras has been engraved and colored by hand. Traditionally, each chakra is associated with an energy center of the body: Muladhara (root), Svadhisthana (sacral), Manipura (solar plexus), Anahata (heart), Vishuddha (throat), Ajna (third eye) and Sahasrara (crown).
Color and finish:
The set exhibits a palette of vibrant colors, obtained by artisanal coloring of the incense holders. The chakra motifs stand out due to the contrast with the tone of the stone and the applied color. As it is a handmade product, the tones and intensity of the colors may vary between the pieces in the batch.
To consider:
The pieces are Indian craftsmanship in natural stone, so they present variations in tone, color and veining. Irregularities and asymmetries are inherent to manual work. Soapstone is a material that requires careful handling due to its fragility. The images show sample pieces, so the final units may present differences in finish. Colors and tones may vary and do not always faithfully correspond to a specific representation of each chakra. The incense visible in images is not part of the product.
