NOX | The Hallowed Pendulum — Hanging Altar Censer

The Hallowed Pendulum

This is not a decorative incense holder.
It is a kinetic ritual object.

Inspired by the monumental botafumeiros of ancient Gothic cathedrals,
The Hallowed Pendulum brings the ritual of moving smoke into a personal, controlled space.

Designed to swing rather than remain static,
it allows incense smoke to travel, circulate, and settle with intention.

Ritual Function

Suspended from a curved silver arm, the censer moves gently when set in motion.
The movement encourages smoke to disperse naturally rather than rise straight upward.

Use it to cleanse:

• Tarot cards

• Crystals

• Jewelry

• Altar spaces

• The air surrounding your resting or ritual area

This object is meant to be used slowly, deliberately, and with presence.

Design & Material

Finished in antique silver, the surface remains cold in tone and timeless in form.
The structure prioritizes balance, heat resistance, and stability during use.

The weighted base features the Cross of Saint James —
a symbol historically associated with pilgrimage, passage, and spiritual discipline.
