Product Information
Full details
The Village Pottery Round House Melt Warmer is designed for home decor enthusiasts who appreciate artisanal craftsmanship and cozy, ambient lighting. It serves as a dual-purpose piece that functions as a charming ornamental structure and a functional vessel for wax melts or essential oils, providing a sensory boost to any room. While it excels in aesthetics and mood-setting, users should note that as a handcrafted clay piece, it requires careful handling and the use of standard tea lights to avoid uneven heat distribution or damage.

FAQs
Can I use large candles inside the house?
No, this warmer is specifically designed for use with standard tea light candles. Larger candles may cause the clay to overheat or crack.
Is the bowl removable for cleaning?
No, the reservoir is integrated into the structure. Follow the freezing or paper towel method for easy wax removal.
Will the grey finish fade over time?
If kept away from direct, harsh sunlight and cleaned properly with a dry cloth, the finish will remain vibrant for years.
Can this be used for essential oils?
Yes, you can add a few drops of essential oil to a small amount of water in the bowl, though ensure the water does not dry out completely.
Is the warmer safe to leave unattended?
As with any item using an open flame, it should never be left unattended while the tea light is burning.
Troubleshooting
Wax is not melting properly
Ensure the tea light is positioned directly beneath the bowl and that the wick is trimmed to the correct height for consistent heat output.
The unit is difficult to move while in use
Never move the warmer while the tea light is lit or the wax is in a liquid state. Always wait for the unit to cool completely.
Exterior finish shows dust or marks
Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to gently buff the surface; avoid abrasive sponges.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward: ensure the warmer is placed on a stable, level surface. Insert a standard, unscented tea light through the rear opening or door (depending on model orientation) and place your chosen wax melt or essential oil blend in the top reservoir. For care, allow the unit to cool completely before attempting to move it or remove solidified wax. To clean, gently wipe the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. If wax residue remains in the bowl, use a paper towel to absorb it while it is still slightly warm, or place the cooled unit in the freezer for ten minutes to pop the hardened wax disc out easily. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that may damage the artisanal finish.
