Abstract: A decorative candle and method of forming a decorative candle are disclosed. The decorative candle is fabricated from a wax material that defines a bottom layer having a top surface. At least one flanged gelatinous component formed from a mineral oil gel is placed onto the top surface of the bottom layer. A second layer of wax having a top layer is added such that the entire flange portion of the gelatinous component is covered, but at least a portion of the decorative (non-flange) portion of the gelatinous component protrudes above the top surface of the top layer of the candle.

Abstract: A method of forming a decorative candle. The method comprises providing a candle which is fabricated from a wax material that defines a top surface. Next, a source of heat is applied to the candle until at least that portion of the wax which defines the top surface thereof is melted. Then at least one gelatinous component formed from a mineral oil gel is placed onto the top surface such that the component is at least partially inserted into the molten wax. The candle is allowed to cool thereby hardening the molten wax and securing the gelatinous component. The melting point of the gelatinous component is higher than the melting point of the wax such that the component will not melt when placed upon the molten wax.

Abstract: A candle embedded with metal particulates is provided that includes a candle body, one or more wick wells, and one or more wicks. The candle body is formed of a moldable and combustible material, such as paraffin or wax. Additionally, the candle body includes a plurality of metal particulates disposed within the moldable and combustible material. Each wick is disposed within a wick well which is essentially a region of moldable and combustible material that is devoid of metal particulates so as to promote more uniform burning of the candle. Preferably, the metal particulates are aluminum wedge shaped flakes. The function of the metal particulates is threefold: 1) they maintain the shape and size of the candle throughout its burn life; 2) they conduct heat from the flame throughout the candle body to permit melting and flowing of liquid wax throughout the candle body to the wicks; and 3) they reflect the candle flame light from the top surface of the candle.
Abstract: This invention relates to candles. It provides a candle and base structure that allows a candle to maintain the candle flame at substantially the same elevation as the candle burns. The invention further provides a candle lantern and a movable base for a candle lantern.
Abstract: A unity candle includes two separate half sections with separate wicks on the adjoining surfaces of the two half sections. As the half sections are moved into registered engagement, the flames from the separate wicks merged into a single flame of increased size and intensity which melts the wax of the candle to fuse the half sections together. The invention contemplates an improved method of symbolizing the joining of a couple in matrimony by placing the two half sections of the unity candle in spaced-apart relation, having the wicks of the half sections lit by respective individuals of the couple and then having the couple place the two half sections together with the adjoining surfaces in registered engagement to form a single unified candle.
