## About
A coal glowing under a pinch of resin, and a thread of smoke rising from the altar shelf. This palm-sized cauldron is sand-cast in solid iron, roughly eight centimeters across, standing on three stubby legs with a small looped handle and a fitted lid. At 400 to 500 grams it has real heft for its size: small enough for a crowded shelf, solid enough to hold a burning charcoal disc and a scatter of resin without warping.The three-legged cauldron is one of the oldest images of Western ritual: the witch's pot of folk tale, the alchemist's vessel where base matter was worked toward gold, the household hearth made small enough to carry. In folklore it is a place of transformation, where separate things meet over heat and become something else entirely.DetailsSolid sand-cast iron with a fitted lid and looped handleRoughly eight centimeters across, 400 to 500 gramsSold as a curiosity; no medical or scientific claims are madeHow to useLine the base with sand or salt before you light charcoal inside: iron conducts heat quickly, and the layer protects both the metal and the surface beneath.
