Product Information
Full details
This cream ceramic oil burner, featuring a delicate Midnight Bloom folk floral design, is ideal for anyone looking to add a touch of practical decoration and pleasant fragrance to their home. Its primary benefit is its dual function as an aesthetic piece and a scent diffuser. A key consideration is the need for constant supervision when a lit candle is in use. The burner allows for the diffusion of fragrance oils or wax melts using a standard tealight.

FAQs
What type of tealights should I use?
Use standard-sized tealight candles. Ensure they fit securely in the designated holder at the back of the burner.
Can I use essential oils directly without dilution?
It is recommended to dilute essential oils with water before placing them in the bowl. Using undiluted oils may create a very intense scent or affect the ceramic over time.
How long does a tealight typically last?
Standard tealights usually burn for approximately 4-6 hours, depending on the brand and manufacturing.
Is it safe to leave the burner unattended?
No, never leave a lit candle or the oil burner unattended. Always extinguish the tealight when leaving the room or going to sleep.
Can I use this burner with wax cubes?
Yes, this burner is suitable for use with wax melts or wax cubes. Place one or two cubes in the bowl, depending on their size and desired fragrance strength.
How often should I clean the burner?
It is best to clean the bowl after each use once it has cooled to prevent residue buildup and ensure optimal performance for the next fragrance.
What are the dimensions of the oil burner?
Specific dimensions are not provided in the product information, but it is designed to be a compact decorative item.
Troubleshooting
No fragrance is being released.
Ensure the tealight is fully lit and burning steadily. Check that the amount of oil or wax melt in the bowl is sufficient and properly diluted if using oil. The room may be too large or have significant airflow.
The ceramic bowl is cracked or chipped.
Discontinue use immediately if the ceramic bowl is damaged, as this can lead to leaks or uneven heating. Replace the burner.
Residue is difficult to remove from the bowl.
Allow the burner to cool completely. Try gently scraping softened residue with a plastic or wooden utensil before cleaning with a damp cloth. For very stubborn wax, a short period in a freezer might make it brittle enough to break off.
