One of the 16 upacharas given to the deities during worship is Dhoopam. This is an innovative piece of accessory used for the offering of fragrant smoke - Sambrani to carry the fire coal. This dhoopkal has a round goblet that supports a thick stand to position the fired charcoal that prevents heat from being transferred to the surface. In order to secure your hands, it comes with a long handle covered with wood. Dhoopakal is small in size and made of dense, heat-resistant brass that can withstand temperatures.
