Abstract
An exemplary oil burning lamp comprises a reservoir configured for storing a supply of oil, a base, a burner tube and a wick. The base is being sized and shaped to receive the reservoir. The burner tube is movably mounted to the reservoir between a retracted position and an extended position. The burner tube has a first end, an opposing second end and at least one opening. In the retracted position, the both ends are located within the reservoir. In the extended position, the first end is located within the reservoir, the second end is located outside the reservoir, and the opening is located such that fragranced components of oil stored in the reservoir can be entrained by air and emanated from the base. The wick is mounted to the burner tube, extends into the reservoir, and extends outwardly from the second end of the burner tube.
