Connectable Modular Candle

Abstract

One embodiment of a connectable modular candle which has many projections ( 11 ) which are used to connect to other modular candles cavities ( 15 a ) to create various sculptural candle forms. This embodiment has wick passageways ( 12 ) and wick channel ( 14 ) through which a wick ( 16 ) is threaded from one candle to the next and so on until the desired burn path is created. This embodiment has the advantage of allowing a candle creator to assemble and disassemble a candle sculpture easily and quickly without having to melt and recast the candle. This embodiment has the additional advantages in that it can be used to more easily create large candles as well as allowing these large candles to be lighter.

1 . An illumination device comprising:
 a. connectable and releasable section or sections of wax or wax-like material with a plurality of projections extending outwardly, and having a plurality of cooperative elements whereby a plurality of said sections may be connected until the desired combination is created;   b. said section contains a plurality of channels and passageways that when aligned and connected with another section allow a wick or wicks to pass through from one section into another;   c. a wick or wicks are then inserted through said wick channels in said sections until the desired configuration is created, with a wick or wick protruding from the illumination device sufficiently enough to be ignited;   d. said illumination device can be connected and reconnected at will providing unlimited combinations of, including but not limited to, shapes, sizes, widths, depths, thicknesses, textures, translucency, color, fragrances, wax and wax-like materials, etcetera.
