Brass Verdigris Tibetan Burner - Four Symbols Square Standing Pot

Brass and verdigris, square, standing, the dragon, phoenix, tiger, and tortoise on each face — the four guardians of the directions, grounded on a surface rather than suspended in air.

This brass Tibetan incense burner features a square standing pot design with a verdigris finish, engraved on each face with one of the four celestial symbols: the Azure Dragon, the Vermilion Phoenix, the White Tiger, and the Black Tortoise. Where the hanging version of this burner moves and distributes smoke through the space, the standing version is fixed — it holds its ground, anchors the four directions to a specific point, and creates a stable centre for the working. For practitioners who work with directional magic, elemental balance, or the calling of the quarters, this burner can serve as the central altar piece around which the four directions are oriented. The verdigris finish gives it an aged, sophisticated quality. Handcrafted in India from brass.

🌿 Dragon (East) — the guardian of the East; associated with wisdom, transformation, and the energy of new beginnings
💧 Phoenix (South) — the guardian of the South; associated with rebirth, passion, and the transformative power of fire
🌸 Tiger (West) — the guardian of the West; associated with courage, protection, and the energy of completion and release
🌱 Tortoise (North) — the guardian of the North; associated with longevity, wisdom, and the deep, patient strength of the earth element
🎁 A meaningful gift for those working with directional magic, elemental balance, or the practice of calling the quarters
