Abstract

The present invention relates to candles, manufacturing and decorating thereof. It is a method and system to produce decorative candles of unique shapes, by using special raw material preparation and candle shaping by hand and, if necessary, with simple sculptural tools. The candle is made without melting the raw material mass to a liquid consistency and without using complex solid raw material forming equipment. Unlike the known methods, in the present invention, during the candle production period (11, 12, 13), the plastic state of the raw material (similar to the consistency of plasticine, sculptural clay or gypsum) is maintained on a regular basis and, in this state, various decorative candle shapes can be formed even by hand only. This method makes it possible to design and make various forms of decorative candles at low cost and provides people with inexpensive means of making candles (such as manufacturing kits) that allow them to unleash their creativity in the production of decorative candles. Also, this method is useful for creating prototypes of decorative candles, from which the corresponding molds for casting or pressing candles are subsequently prepared and the candles are mass-produced by casting or pressing those molds.
