Jesus Incense Burner

More Jesus

More Incense

This seemingly traditional statue of Jesus doubles as an incense burner or holder. When holding the incense, Jesus appears to be carrying a staff in his right hand. With his other hand, he is welcoming his followers. He is dressed in a conventional manner, in red and white robes.

The base is designed to look like rocks and collects the ashes from the incense stick easily and safely. Incense not included. Without incense, this statue measures about 8-1/2 inches high.

Original Three Kings Charcoal for Incense Lighting

More Incense

Not all incense is alike. There are many self-lighting incense cones and sticks. But, for powdered or resin incense, you'll need self-lighting charcoal. Three Kings Charcoal disks have long been known as the favorite. This roll contains 10 33mm charcoal disks.

To use, place a single disk of charcoal (round round side down) in an incense censer or other fire-proof dish. The charcoal gets very hot, so do not touch it with your hands once it is lit. Use a pair of tongs to move it. Hold a match to the edge of the disk until the charcoal begins to sparkle - this should continue across the charcoal. Once the disk is lit, add your a small amount of your incense (herbs, resins, powders) to the lit cake of charcoal. The incense material will either melt or burn, releasing its scent into the air. This will burn for several minutes. Add more if you want to savor the effect longer.

Please let the tablet burn out and cool in the censer or fire-proof dish. To extinguish a tablet before it has fully cooled, quench in a container of cold water. Do not discard burning charcoal immediately. Ensure that it is extinguished completely and is absolutely cooled before discarding.

Copal Incense

Copal Incense Tears

More Incense

More Metaphysical

Copal incense has been used for centuries in Mesoamerica. Although it is available in other forms, resin is the most common for rituals and for refreshing. Most often called copal tears resin, these are really chunks of crystallized copal resin. It is believed to open the soul to creativity.

Because it is not self-lighting, you'll need to burn it with self-lighting charcoal made especially for burning resin and powder incense, such as Three Kings Charcoal. Once placed on burning charcoal, it makes a sweet, thick smoke. Some people grind the resin chunks before burning, and others prefer to use the chunks whole.

Because of its soft, warming sweet smoke, is is traditionally burned in protection, cleansing and purification ceremonies. This is the same incense that was burned atop the ancient pyramids of the Aztecs and Mayans.

The word copal is derived from the Nahuatl word copalli, meaning incense. It is believed that the resin was extracted from the tree of life and given to humans as a gift by the Mayan gods.

Shaman Smudging Supplies

Whether you are performing a cleansing ceremony before healing, or just because you enjoy the scent, you'll enjoy our smudging supplies. It is important to cleanse the soul and body of bad spirits, negative energies and thoughts. These traditional items are prepared in much the same manner as they have been for generations of Native Americans. The herbs are quite aromatic, even if just displayed and never burned. Smudging involves taking the smoke in to your hands and brush or rub it over your body.

Our sage and cedar bundle measures between 6 and 8 inches long and is tightly woven (ties may differ). This is just the right size for personal use or for use in a sweat lodge.

Although not necessary for cleansing or ceremonies, a traditional smudge burner is the natural abalone shell. The hand-carved stand is just right for a wonderful way to display your smudge, but we can imagine the shell and stand the perfect base for many natural room accents.

Our combination smudge stick brings together the cleansing characteristics of sage and the connection to our ancestors represented by cedar.

Genuine Quahog Half Shell

Natural Quahog half-Shells (Wampum)

Most often associated with Rhode Island, the quahog bi-valve clam is used for food as well as to make jewelry. At one time, wampum beads (fashioned from the purplish-cream inside of the shell) were used in trade between the settlers and the natives in North America.

These elegant shells are beautiful as is, giving a special touch to any shell collection. But they also shine as display dishes for pearls and jewelry, smaller shells and beads.

Native American Indian wampum was colored both purple and off-white, but the largest association is with the purple shells. All of our half-shells have some purple and the exterior is left rough, as found in nature.

As far as we know, the quahog shells offered to you by SilverCrow are the bi-product of someone's dinner. The hand-dug clams were eaten, and, rather than waste the shells, we have purchased the most elegant ones.  over 5 inches in diameter.
