Know before you buy

The lamp is dishwasher safe, which makes cleaning straightforward. Alternatively, you can hand wash it with warm, soapy water and a soft cloth to maintain its clarity.
Yes, each lamp includes the glass vessel, a wick, a wick holder, and a set of instructions. You will only need to provide your own lamp oil to get started.
We recommend using a high-quality, smokeless liquid paraffin lamp oil. Avoid using scented oils or kerosene, as these can clog the wick or cause soot buildup.
