Abstract

Abstract A candle lamp comprises a reservoir base in which there is a quantity of combustible fuel. A cover over the base supports a structure on which is mounted coaxially with a passage through the structure two spaced apart concentric tubular members. The outer tubular member is formed as an ordinary wax candle or in other desireable shape. The inner tubular member supports at its upper end an adapter. Through the adapter passes a wick that extends into the reservoir base. The wick forms with the wall of the bore through the adapter at least one axial channel. A decorative chimney of translucent substance is supported on the top of the reservoir and surrounds the concentric tubular members.
