What it is

An oil burner has a small dish above a tealight. Put water in the dish, add a few drops of essential or fragrance oil, light the tealight below, and the warmth carries the scent into the room. Many burners also melt wax melts.

Why people choose it

  • Quiet scent, no plug A tealight is all it needs, and it makes no sound.
  • Oils or wax melts Most take water with drops of oil; many melt wax melts too.
  • A piece that stays out Ceramic, soapstone and glass in shapes that suit a shelf.
  • Simple to look after Rinse the dish once it is cool, and it is ready again.

How to use it

  1. 1

    Fill the dish with water

  2. 2

    Add a few drops of oil, or place a wax melt

  3. 3

    Light a tealight underneath and keep it in sight

Care: Never let the dish run dry. Never leave a lit tealight unattended. Let it cool before you wash the dish.

    Good quality perfect wax melt burner handy tea light holder

    Really pleased with this product, arrived quickly, 2 units one for my bedroom and one for the living room. Not sure why some reviewers said Tea Lights didn't fit in the handy ceramic spoon. I've got a variety of tea lights and everyone fit perfectly. The little ceramic spoon is a real plus, no more…

    Cute little cauldron

    I'm a beginner at blending oils for burning and was trying out combinations in this (and of course I had to sing "Double Trouble" from the 3rd Harry Potter film while making my potions). Its more interesting-looking than most burners and it seems good quality - easy to wipe clean. The hole could be…

    Lovely Buddah wax burner

    This is such lovely wax/oil burner. Decent size as some similar ones are much smaller so I was well pleased with this item. Keeping the lid on top when burning wax melts hasn't given any problems but only use small melts or 1 - 2 squares off a block as the reservoir is quite small. The candle gives…

    I love owls, enjoy hearing and seeing the Tawny Owls whom live in my area, and the gorgeous Barn Owls and Little Owls, so, a cute white owl burner, I had to have it. Arrived promptly, and safely packaged. It looks fine with any decor, is attractive when not being used as an oil burner. I do forget…

    Really nice sized oil burner beautiful great price to

    Really nice witchy cauldron oil burner, beautiful, great solid make, definitely value for the money, seems to be very durable and looks great. My only issue is it doesn’t seem to warm up very quickly so I'd say use the 8 hr tea lights min. Works really well with distilled water and some essential…

    Gorgeous

    Item arrived very quickly and well packaged. The wax dish didn't look very deep but actually comfortably fits some of my larger melts with no issue. Only slight gripe is that one of the legs is slightly uneven, but it does not wobble much and I suspect this is not a common issue. Looks lovely and…

    Stylish and subtle.

    I've been using this wax melt burner for a couple of years now, and it's quickly become one of my favourite little home items. It looks lovely sitting out, almost like a piece of décor rather than something purely functional. The design feels simple but elegant, so I don't mind leaving it on the…

    Really lovely gift

    Really lovely & unique oil burner that uses essential oil (& water) & tea lights. Excellent quality, design & carefully packaged too. The shadows created by the candle light are lovely & you only need a drop or two of oil in the top with water to release a lovely scent. (TIP: To keep the golden…

    OIL burner

    Accidentally bought a small calendar filled with oil burner oils thinking it was wax melts so had nothing that uses the oils. Saw this & wasn't sure if it would work. It's quite stunning when the tea light candle is lit as it shines through the tree motif. It's easy to clean the bowl once the…

A few things often kept alongside this piece.

About this product

How the fragrance is warmed
  • The top bowl holds a little water with a few drops of fragrance oil, warmed gently by a tealight below.
  • As the water heats, the scent diffuses softly rather than sharply, making it suited to slow evenings and quiet corners.
  • The open base gives the flame its own small chamber, so the burner feels decorative even before it is lit.
  • Keep an eye on the bowl while in use and do not let it run dry.
Carved soapstone with a classic feel

Soapstone has a soft, natural look that suits carved detail beautifully. Here it gives the oil burner a calm, grounded presence, more like a small stone object than a shiny home fragrance accessory.

The classic hand-carved design keeps it simple enough for a bedside table, meditation shelf, bathroom ledge or living-room side table.

Using it with care

Place the burner on a stable, heat-resistant surface before lighting the tealight. Add water to the top bowl first, then a few drops of fragrance oil.

Let the stone cool fully before moving or cleaning it. Wipe away residue gently and keep the bowl dry between uses.

Why flame and fragrance still feel special

Oil burners belong to a long human habit of combining warmth, scent and atmosphere. Across many cultures, from incense in temples to simple oil lamps in the home, a small flame has marked a shift in mood and attention. This Indian soapstone piece keeps that feeling simple: one candle, one bowl, one chosen scent, and a room that feels more intentional without needing much space.

Size and details

Made from soapstone in India. It measures 8 cm and weighs 240 g.

Designed for use with a tealight candle in the base and fragrance oil diluted in water in the top bowl.

A thoughtful home fragrance gift

A lovely choice for someone who enjoys scent, candlelight and small rituals at home. It suits housewarmings, birthdays, or a gentle self-care gift for a quiet corner.

Common questions

Can I use it with wax melts or aroma granules?
Oil and wax burners of this style are commonly used with wax melts or aroma granules as well as water with fragrance oil. Use only formats intended for burners and follow the guidance on the fragrance product.
Should the tealight be scented?
An unscented tealight is best, so it does not compete with the fragrance oil in the top bowl.
