ABSTRACT:
A candle in the form of a wax body with an embedded or replaceable wick is supported by a spring within a tubular outer casing which has a thermally-insulating lining. A thermally-insulating cover extends across the upper end of the tubular outer casing and the wick extends through an aperture in the cover. Thermally conducting wires extend from the aperture in the cover to conduct heat to the periphery of the candle body below the cover to ensure uniform melting of the wax which flows through apertures in the cover. As the candle burns the spring urges the candle body upwards towards the cover to maintain the burning wick at a generally constant height.
