Details

The burning of incense was an integral part of Roman votive rituals allowing supplicants to make offerings to the gods from whom they desired patronage and protection.  

The petitioner would place a lump of burning coal in the burner's upper bowl. On top of this would be placed the resin or herbs that would smoulder gently and produce sweet-smelling smoke. It is known that Frankincense, myrrh, cinnamon and rosemary were amongst the incense used during these rituals. 

Materials

Terracotta clay.

Dimensions

Approx. 100 mm tall, 170 mm diameter

Production

We have hand-made this replica Roman pot in our studio in beautiful Northumberland and based on an original artefact. It has been to a temperature of between 800 & 1000 Centigrade, using the same techniques that the original potters employed. This process often results in variations of the surface colour and texture, emulating original Roman Pottery and giving each pot its unique character.
