The Holy Water pot, Panch Patra, is used in temples with Pali, a small ceremonial spoon.

Holy water or Panchamrit is a mix of 5 sacred liquids, stored in this vessel and placed before deities as offerings before puja, prayer rituals, begin. The deities partake in these offering and return them with Prasada, Sanskrit meaning favor and grace, to be shared with the worshippers.

This vintage engraved solid copper pot is story filled,  with heavy verdigris, patina, history and a bit of weight. You may shine it or keep the patina. Your choice.

Hold your incense sticks or burn cones at your altar.
