Traditional Orthodox Hanging Vigil Oil Lamps
We Offer 3 Different Cork Float Types
Mount Athos Cork Float (open) with Adjustable Height
This cork float features copper wire inserts that allow you to adjust the strength of the flame. Pulling up the end of the wire increases the flame. Pushing on the end of the wire moves it downward, thus reducing the flame to the desired level.
Mount Athos Cork Float (closed) with Adjustable Height
This cork float features copper wire inserts that allow you to adjust the strength of the flame. Pulling up the end of the wire increases the flame. Pushing on the end of the wire moves it downward, thus reducing the flame to the desired level.
Traditional Cork Float with Cross Shape Pattern
Traditional cork float with a little handle for easy removal and placement in the vigil lamp. When you bend it up, it also makes it easy to replace the wick without touching the oil.
How to Use Vigil Oil Lamps
Prayer for Lighting a Vigil Lamp:
Set our hearts on fire with love for you, O Christ our God,
So that in its flame we may love you with all our heart,
With all our mind, with all our soul, and with all our strength,
And our neighbors as ourselves,
So that by keeping your commandments we may glorify you,
The giver of all good gifts. Amen.

I've bought from Blessed Mart from Etsy. And very happy to see them on Amazon now. The cork floats do what they are supposed to do. Some customers were complaining that the hole for the wick is too big. Folks, there are two metal tongs through the hole, simply pinch them to your desire dimension.

I use these as a demonstration for a historical oil lamp class that I am teaching. While they are fairly cheaply made, I did not expect anything more. They do the job and they work well.

I resell these and they are very popular. Cotton string or those those short paraffin covered wicks can be used. To utilize cotton or string, go ahead and use either thin wire or dental floss to pull it through the hole, then press together the little metal pice underneath to secure the string. Make sure not more than an 8th of an inch is poking through the top, to keep theflame manageable. Use tweezers to adjust and keep pulling through after each lighting. Use any vegetable or olive oil for the cork to float on (no water). Bend the metal side piece up for easy handling. To snuff out the flame, dunk the cork into the oil instead of blowing out the flame. That way, you can easily light it again. Hope this helps.
