Stainless Charcoal Holder — Wood Handle, Gas-Stove Ready

Essentials charcoal holder — stainless steel cup, wood handle, gas-stove ready for safer coal starts

What it is, why it helps, how it works. This is a compact stainless steel cup with a reinforced base and a long wooden handle. You load your natural coals in the cup and sit it over a gas stove flame to bring them to full light; then carry the cup to your shisha or barbecue and place coals with tongs. It keeps heat contained, your hands away from the flame, and ash out of your kitchen or patio.

Built from stainless steel with a comfortable wood grip, our Essentials charcoal holder is purpose-made for lighting and moving coals without fuss. Available in Small, Medium and Large, it’s an easy add to any kit—at home, in the garden, or on a weekend away. Pair it with quality coconut coals from our Charcoal collection and, if you prefer plug-in convenience, browse our Electric Charcoal Burners.

What sets it apart

• Safer handling with a heat-insulated wooden handle that keeps fingers clear when coals are glowing.
• Reinforced base and grill insert for stable seating over a gas flame and better airflow while lighting.
• Stainless steel body resists warping and cleans up quickly after ash and soot.
• Three practical sizes (S/M/L) so you can carry a quick solo set or enough coals for the whole table.

Fit & compatibility

• Designed for use on gas stoves (open flame). Not suitable for induction cooktops.
• Works with natural coconut cube, flat, or cylinder coals; also fine for quick-lights.

How to dial it in

• Fill the cup with spaced coals (don’t stack tightly). Set over a medium gas flame.
• After 5–7 minutes, rotate coals with tongs; finish to a uniform grey ash on edges before use.
• Carry the holder to your pipe or grill and place coals with tongs. Never pour coals directly.

Craft & performance

• Round stainless cup with vented interior encourages even ignition.
• Balanced handle gives steady control when walking hot coals across a room or deck.

Care & upkeep

• Let fully cool; tap out ash. Hand-wash stainless with warm soapy water; dry thoroughly.
• Avoid soaking the wooden handle; wipe it down and keep dry.
