Product Information
Full details
This black ceramic oil burner is designed for those who enjoy ambient fragrance and a touch of gothic or magical decor. Its key benefit is providing a warm, atmospheric glow while diffusing your favorite scents. A potential caveat is that it requires a standard tealight, which is not included. The burner is shaped like a pair of witch boots with star cut-outs that illuminate when a tealight is lit.

FAQs
What size tealight does this burner use?
This oil burner is designed for standard-sized tealight candles.
Does it come with a tealight or fragrance oil?
No, the tealight candle and fragrance oil are not included with the burner. These must be purchased separately.
How long does the scent last?
The duration of the scent depends on the type and amount of fragrance oil used, as well as the burn time of the tealight. Typically, a tealight burns for 3-4 hours, providing scent during that time.
Can I use essential oils directly without water?
It is generally recommended to dilute essential oils with water before using them in an oil burner to prevent them from burning too quickly or potentially damaging the ceramic bowl over time. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for your specific oil.
Is the black finish durable?
The black finish is applied to a ceramic material. While durable for its intended use, it can be scratched by abrasive materials or chipped if dropped.
How should I clean the inside of the boot?
The inside of the boot is primarily decorative. You can wipe the exterior, including the inside of the cut-outs, with a damp cloth. The functional part is the oil bowl at the top, which requires cleaning with warm, soapy water.
What is the warranty period?
Information regarding warranty is typically provided by the retailer. Please check your purchase receipt or contact B&Q for specific warranty details.
Troubleshooting
No scent is being diffused.
Ensure the tealight is lit and has been burning long enough to warm the oil. Check that the oil is properly diluted with water and that the correct amount is in the bowl. Verify the tealight is centered under the bowl.
The star cut-outs are not glowing.
Confirm that the tealight is lit and burning brightly. Ensure there are no obstructions blocking the light from the cut-outs. The glow will be more apparent in a dimly lit room.
Oil residue is difficult to remove from the bowl.
Soak the bowl in warm, soapy water for a short period before attempting to clean it with a soft sponge. For stubborn residue, a paste of baking soda and water can be gently applied and then wiped away.
Burner feels unstable.
Ensure the burner is placed on a completely flat and level surface. Check that the base of the burner is free from any debris that might cause unevenness.
