Pendants are a beautiful, unique way to diffuse essential oils for yourself, and as a personal scent.

Terra Cotta Pendants are:

* Kiln-fired terra-cotta clay: rock hard yet light as air!
* Smooth, wearer-friendly edges (you can even tuck it in if you like!)
* Hand-made with stringent Quality Control.
* Waxed cotton cords: just as soft but more durable than leather.
* Adjustable, sliding-knot cord.
* Economical and made by a family business in Canada.

Because of their size and light-weight quality, and economical price, Terra Cotta Pendants can be the subtle diffuser for each room of your home!

How to Diffuse essential oils with a Terra Cotta Pendant

Essential oils are naturally volatile, which means they evaporate easily, in normal temperatures.When a drop of essential oil is applied to the surface of the terra cotta piece, it is absorbed into the tiny pores of the kiln-fired clay. From there it slowly diffuses into the air surrounding it, somewhat like a wet sponge allows water to evaporate from it into the air.

Once the terra cotta piece has become saturated with essential oil, it is not necessary to add a drop of oil each day. After a few days you can refresh the surface of the clay with a just smear of oil as desired.

Inhaling essential oils has been shown in a study to be effective in dealing with stress, blood pressure and more!

Frequently Asked Questions about Terra Cotta Pendants

Q: How much oil do I use?
A: One drop.

Q: Do I need to apply oil every day?
A: No. There will be enough oil in one drop to diffuse for several days. When you can no longer smell the oil very well, you can reapply oil at that time.

Q: Where do I put the oil?
A: You lay the pendant flat and put one drop onto the front of the clay. Allow the oil to fully absorb into the clay before wearing.

Q: What is the length of the rope?
A: Terra Cotta Pendants come with waxed cotton, sliding-knot ropes which can be adjusted in length to approximately 38 cm (15 inches) to 76 cm (30 inches) long.

Q: What is the size of the Pendants?
A: Round Pendants - 2.8cm (1 1/8in) across; Oval Pendants - 3.25cm by 3.75cm (1 1/4in by 1 1/2in);Rectangular Pendants - 2.7cm by 4.2cm (1 1/8in by 1 7/8in).

Q: How thick are Terra Cotta Pendants?
A: About half a cm (3/8 of an inch).

Q: Will the oils stain my clothing?
A: No, as long as it is completely absorbed in the clay before you put the pendant on.

Q: How long does the oil last?
A: Usually most of the oil will diffuse from the pendant within a day, but you will still be able to smell the oil for another day or two or three. For best results, and to enjoy fully the benefits of inhaling essential oils, refresh daily .

Q: How can I change the oil that I'm using?
A: Wait until most of the oil has diffused off the pendant, then apply the second one. Some oils will blend nicely so that you can apply a second oil when there is still some of the first oil remaining on the pendant.

Q: Don't I need to use heat to diffuse the essential oil?
A: Essential oils are naturally volatile ("evaporating quickly and easily at ordinary temperatures") so you don't need any heat to diffuse them.
