{"product_id":"carved-soapstone-essential-oil-burner-3-5","title":"Carved Soapstone Oil Burner — Hand-Carved Tealight Aromatherapy Diffuser","description":"\u003cp\u003eThere is a moment, right before a ritual begins, when the room still smells like the day you had. A little heat, a little oil, and that changes. This hand-carved soapstone burner from India is the quiet instrument that makes the change happen — no cords, no plastic, no hum. Just a tealight underneath and a shallow dish above.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoapstone is soft enough to be carved by hand and dense enough to hold heat evenly, which is why it has been the traditional material for burners like this one for generations. At 3.5 inches it sits comfortably on a nightstand, a windowsill, or the corner of an altar without demanding the whole surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color:#2c3a37\"\u003eAt a glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarved soapstone, made in India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3.5 inches tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTealight-warmed — no electricity required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen bowl design for oil and water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTealight candle and essential oils are not included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShips within 3 business days\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color:#2c3a37\"\u003eHow to use it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSet the burner on a heat-safe surface with space around it.
