This sacred vessel is an integral part of the Holy Altar. Used by the priest to incense the Holy Gifts, the faithful, and the icons, the censer plays a vital role in Orthodox liturgy.
It is suspended by four chains—symbolizing the Four Evangelists—which support a total of twelve small bells, representing the Twelve Apostles. The rising incense signifies the prayers of the faithful ascending to heaven, creating a solemn and reverent atmosphere.
The base of the censer holds profound symbolism: it represents the womb of the Virgin Mary, which carried the divine infant—the “fire of fire”—without being harmed.
