Dhoop Dani – Incense Burner for Puja & Spiritual Rituals

A Dhoop Dani is a traditional incense burner used to burn dhoop, loban, or sambrani during Hindu rituals, aarti, temple ceremonies, and daily पूजा. It helps safely contain burning incense while spreading fragrance and purifying the environment.

As a non-electric, physical religious utensil, a Dhoop Dani is correctly classified under Trademark Class 21 of the NICE Classification.
