Description
This ceramic wax melt burner takes the shape of a little two-handled urn, finished in a soft speckled ivory that reads warm rather than stark. The top half is plain, with two open loop handles rising from the shoulders, while the lower half is ribbed all the way round in fine vertical lines. At the front, a wide arched opening takes a tealight, and two small round vents on the shoulders let the flame breathe. The shallow dish at the top holds your wax melts. It stands 11.8cm tall and is 8.6cm across and deep, so it sits neatly on even a narrow shelf.
Its pale colour suits most rooms, from a living room side table to a bedroom chest of drawers or a hallway console. The ivory sits comfortably alongside natural wood, linen and stone. The ribbing and handles give it the look of a small piece of pottery even when it is not lit. The back is closed and ribbed, so it looks just as tidy from behind on an open shelf or a mantelpiece. Lit in the evening, the glow from the opening warms the ivory from within while the melt lets your chosen scent drift through the room.
The speckled finish runs over the whole burner, handles and ribs included, giving it a gently textured feel in the hand. To clean it, let the wax cool and set first, then lift it out and wipe the dish with a damp cloth. A soft dry cloth keeps dust off the rest. As with any burner, stand it on a flat, steady surface clear of curtains and anything that could catch, and never leave a burning candle unattended. We like it on a small tray with a few melts beside it, or grouped with plain pillar candles for a calm, natural corner.
