Oil Burner – Sandstone Stepped Wave

• An unscented tealight sits in the base, warming the dish above with a steady, gentle heat.
• For essential oils, add a little water first, then a few drops of oil.
• Wax melts and aroma granules can be placed directly in the upper dish.
• The fragrance lifts gradually as the dish warms, giving the ritual a slower, softer pace.
• Keep an eye on the dish during use, especially when using water and essential oil.

The stepped wave design gives the piece a grounded, architectural look. It reads as a sculptural object when cold, then becomes warmer and more atmospheric once the tealight is glowing inside.

Made from sandstone, it has a natural weight and stillness that suits a shelf, side table or quiet corner used for fragrance rituals.

Place the oil burner on a stable, heat-resistant surface, away from draughts, fabrics and anything flammable. Add your chosen wax melt, aroma granules, or water and essential oil to the dish before lighting the tealight below.

Do not let the dish run dry while the candle is lit. Allow the burner to cool fully before moving it, emptying it or wiping it clean.

This piece comes from Indonesia, with supplier context linking it to artisan craft in Jogja, Java. The area is known for stone carving traditions, including devotional and decorative objects, and that sense of carved stillness suits this burner well. Here, the purpose is simple and modern: a flame, a dish of fragrance, and a pause in the day. It belongs as much to an evening wind-down as to a slow Sunday morning, marking the room with scent and a little candlelit shadow.

Weight: 430 g.

Suitable for use with an unscented tealight in the base and wax melts, aroma granules, or water with essential oil in the top dish.

A considered gift for someone who enjoys home fragrance, candlelight and slow, atmospheric details. Pair it with a favourite wax melt or essential oil to make the gesture feel personal.
