Help with finding an oil diffuser?

I’m looking for oil diffusers that have either a ceramic or porcelain topper. I’ve been looking all over online, but I can’t find a good website – so is anyone willing to help me? Can someone point me where to go?

Here’s an example of the kind I’m looking for (I don’t want a diffuser meant for reeds): http://www.bobbyberkhome.com/product/candles/20845/blissliving-home-kafir-lily-flower-diffuser.html

It doesn’t have to be identical, or even have a flower topper. I just want a glass bottle, and porcelain/ceramic topper. Thanks!

Do you want the kind that uses a candle?

@liminal Nope, no candle. Not electric, either.

Hmm, the only kind of passive diffusers I am aware of are clay pots and discs like these: http://www.santosha.com/Desert-Stone-Passive-Diffuser_p_2472.html and http://www.naturesgift.com/aromatherapyaccessories.htm#HANGING-DIFFUSER

Now you have me curious to find one! You might be on to a new business idea.

@liminal Yeah, the kind I’m looking for are really hard to find.

Clever. I’m going to try making one. You could email me in a couple weeks and find out if it worked. kruger_d@isd362.k12.mn.us. Is the whole think ceramic or should there be a cork at the base? My sister gave me similar store-bought diffuser except the flower was made from some kind of leaf material, almost like cornhusk.

@kruger_d Some of the diffusers with ceramic and porcelain toppers either have something rope-like hanging off the bottom of the topper which rests in the oil, or they just continue the ceramic and/or porcelain straight into the oil, in a tapered down tip. Ceramic and porcelain are both really porous, which is why they work so well.
