Rustic Mason Jar Sconce / Olive Oil Lamp
~ Rustic Mason Jar Scone w/ Olive Oil Burning Wick ~
This one-of-a-kind piece is made from high quality, hand-picked upcycled materials. The frame is made from flooring salvaged from a homestead in deep east Texas that dated back the early 1900's!
The frame is constructed so that it is completely self-supporting, it can be placed anywhere ... a shelf, desk, counter ... any flat surface will do! It also has standard picture frame hardware on the back so it can be hung on the wall as well, the possibilities are endless!
Inside the jar is a replaceable, cotton wick that is mounted through a wire stand placed at the bottom of the jar. The wire stand is easily removable via a vertical handle to make wick adjustment/replacement easy and simple. Add about 1/4 cup standard house hold olive oil and light as you would a candle. It will burn burn for 6+ hours on this small amount of oil.
Olive oil is almost 100% pure fuel, and burns clean, virtually scent-free, as well as being hypoallergenic. Olive oil, made by trees, is vegetarian and replenish able. It is gotten by pressing olives, not by the complex chemical methods required to make other vegetable oils. You can also add your own essential oils to bring a unique fragrance to your home!
