These stainless steel charcoal tongs make it easier to safely grip, light and position charcoal discs when burning natural resin and loose incense.
The long-handled design helps keep your hands away from the heat, while the serrated tips provide a secure grip on charcoal discs. Pair them with a cast iron cauldron or charcoal burner for a simple, practical charcoal incense setup.
Grip a charcoal disc securely between the serrated ends of the tongs. Holding the charcoal away from your body and flammable materials, carefully light one edge and allow it to catch.
Once lit, use the tongs to place the charcoal inside a suitable cast iron cauldron or heat-safe charcoal burner. Allow the charcoal to heat before adding a small amount of natural resin or loose incense.

Charcoal becomes extremely hot once lit. Never handle hot charcoal directly with your hands.
Always light and transfer charcoal over a stable, heat-resistant surface and keep away from flammable materials, children and pets. The tips of the tongs may become hot during use, so allow them to cool completely before touching the ends or storing.
Never leave burning charcoal or incense unattended.

Incense burners, cauldrons, trays and their contents may become hot during use. Always place your burner or holder on a stable, heat-resistant surface, away from flammable materials. When using charcoal or a vessel that becomes very hot, use an insulating trivet or tile underneath.
Burn incense in a well-ventilated area with good airflow. Ensure incense sticks, cones, Palo Santo and other burning materials are positioned securely so that hot ash or embers fall within the burner or tray rather than onto surrounding surfaces.
Never leave burning or smouldering incense unattended. Keep incense, burners and hot charcoal away from children and pets.
When using charcoal, handle charcoal discs with suitable tongs and avoid touching or moving the burner while hot. Allow the burner, charcoal, ash and incense residue to cool completely before handling, cleaning or disposal.
Different materials retain and respond to heat differently. Only use your burner or holder with the types of incense described in its individual product listing, and follow any additional care instructions provided there.
