A bakhoor burner is a traditional vessel used to burn incense, particularly bakhoor, a type of fragrant wood chips or resin that releases a rich, aromatic smoke.
These burners are typically crafted from materials like metal, ceramic, or wood, and often feature intricate designs, reflecting cultural or artistic influences. The burner usually has a small bowl or dish at the top where the bakhoor is placed, and a heat source, such as charcoal or an electric coil, is used to ignite the incense.
As the bakhoor smolders, it fills the air with a warm, soothing fragrance, often used in homes or during special occasions for its calming and inviting scent.
Some bakhoor burners are also designed with a cover or lid to contain the smoke, while others are open, allowing the aroma to fill the room.
