The censer, a traditional object of the Catholic liturgy

The censer is used in the liturgy to hold the burning coals upon which the incense is placed. The fragrant smoke that rises from it accompanies various moments of the celebrations and symbolises, in particular, prayer rising up to God.

It can be used for incensing the altar, the Gospel, the offerings and the Blessed Sacrament, as well as during various liturgical celebrations and processions.
