Abstract: A wax candle (10) positioned below a wax reservoir (30), which is held in position above candle (10) by a wax reservoir support (20). While burning, the heat emitted from the flame of candle (10) causes the wax contained in reservoir (30) to slowly and continuous melt. This melted wax drips down from reservoir (30) into candle (10) and replenishes the wax used for combustion on the wick of candle (10). The rate of this replenishment and the flame size of candle (10) are self regulating, and in direct relationship with each other during cycle outlined below: An increase in flame size causes a subsequent increase in replenishment. An increase in replenishment causes a subsequent decrease in flame size. A decrease in flame size causes a subsequent decrease in replenishment. A decrease in replenishment causes a subsequent increase in flame size. And the cycle begins again.

Abstract: A low-burning candle comprises a body of fuel (1) having top (1a) and base (1b) regions, a glass enclosure (2), a central wick (3) and a glass or metal spacing member (5) encircling the wick within the body of fuel at a location above the base region of the fuel (1b). The spacing member (5) includes a wick-encircling top portion which limits combustion and thus defines a lower limit of travel of the flame (4) as the fuel is consumed, and vertically extending portion which serves to space the said limit of travel of the flame above the base region of the fuel (1b). The flame is thus kept away from direct contact with the glass enclosure (2) and by selecting the desired thermoconductivity of the spacing member (5) the flame will burn at its lower limit of travel for a greater or lesser length of time, depending on the amount of heat that is transferred to the base region of the fuel (1b) via the spacing member (5).
