Definition
A container with holes in it used to burn and disperse incense smoke during religious ceremonies.
Etymology
From Old French 'censier,' derived from 'cense,' referring to the vessel used in the act of censing with incense.
Kelly Says
Thuribles (ornate hanging censers) in medieval churches were engineered so beautifully that monks could swing them without spilling burning coals—it's early chemistry and physics meeting religious art.
