Does it work for both incense and wax melts?

Yes. The heat-resistant glass is designed for indirect heating, so you can set a tealight below and use the top for incense cones or wax tarts. It is not meant for direct flame contact with the glass.

What size tealight does it take?

It fits most standard tealight candles. The base is about 9.5 cm across, so check that your tealights sit flat and centered before lighting.

Can I put it in the dishwasher?

No. Wipe it clean with a soft damp cloth. Avoid sudden temperature changes, and never add cold water to a hot burner, since thermal shock can crack hand-blown glass.

Will the glass color match the photos?

Not exactly. Each piece is hand-blown, so color and shape vary slightly, and monitor settings can shift how the shade looks. Treat variation as part of the handmade look.

Is it safe to leave burning unattended?

No tealight burner should be left unattended. Place it on a heat-safe surface away from drafts, curtains and pets, and never let the flame touch the glass.

How many wax melts does it hold?

The bowl is small, so expect to use one or two standard tarts at a time. That suits a bedroom or desk; a large open room will need a bigger warmer.

Our take on the Vintage Glass Incense Burner, Candle Wax Melt Warmer

This is a hand-blown glass incense burner that also works as a wax melt warmer, sized to sit over a standard tealight. It stands about 14.6 cm tall with a 9.5 cm bowl, and the heat-resistant glass is meant for indirect heating rather than direct flame. It suits people who want a decorative, low-tech piece for incense or wax tarts in a bedroom, bathroom or meditation corner. Against ceramic and metal burners it is lighter and more decorative, but glass is more fragile and needs gentler handling and cleaning.
