Where the Ohm motif meets oil diffusion
The Aromafume oil burner shows the Ohm motif cut into wrought iron. The symbol is one of the most recognisable signs of Indian culture – a sign of calm, inward reflection and wholeness. You bring this finely handcrafted object into your home, so the use of essential oils becomes a small visual experience too.
Material, size and structure
The burner is 9 cm wide, 8.5 cm tall and is made up of three parts: a wrought iron frame with the cut-out motif; a copper water cup at the top; and a wooden coaster that protects your table from the warmth below. The frame is shaped so that the warmth of the tealight safely reaches the water cup, while the small openings allow enough oxygen for the flame.
Easy step-by-step use
You pour 2–3 tablespoons of cold water into the top cup. Add 3–8 drops of your favourite essential oil – start with fewer drops and only add more if the scent feels light. Light the tealight, place it inside the burner, and settle in. The warmth gently evaporates the water, and the oil diffuses along with it – it does not burn off, which is why the scent lasts longer than over an open flame.
What it offers you
Many customers use it in the living room during a quiet afternoon: with lavender or lemongrass oil they create a relaxing mood while ironing or settling in for a long read. Massage therapists like to place it near the treatment table, since the steady water-tealight combination gives a soft, gentle scent that does not overwhelm the guest's breathing. In the morning, rosemary or mint give a fresh lift, and in the evening a single drop of jasmine or lavender helps you wind down.
Storage, care and safety
Never leave the burner unattended while a tealight is burning. Keep it away from children and pets. After use, once the burner has fully cooled, wipe out the copper cup – this way the next scent comes through cleanly. You can clean the wooden coaster with a slightly damp cloth, avoiding strong detergents. The burner is made in India in Aromafume's traditional workshops.
