What is a Thurible? A thurible is a metal censer suspended from chains.

Incense is burned during worship services. It is

used in the Anglican, Eastern Orthodox, Lutheran,

Old Catholic, and Roman Catholic churches, as

well as in Christian and non-Christian Gnostic

Churches and in the practice of ceremonial magic.

The Altar Server who carries the thurible is called

the thurifer.

It is quite simple how the thurible works. Burning

charcoal is inside the thurible and incense is placed

upon it. There are many different varieties and

many different smells. Once the incense has been

placed on the charcoal the thurible is then closed

and used for censing. The Thurible is then made to

swing backwards and forwards so that air can enter

through the holes and keep the charcoal burning.

The word thurible comes from the Old French

thurible, which is derived from the Latin term

thuribulum. The Latin word thuribulum has the root

thur, meaning incense. The Latin thur is an

alteration of the Greek word thuos, which is derived

from the term thuein, meaning to sacrifice.
