Shinning Candles

Candles:

Candles can be traced back thousands of years - all the way back to biblical times.
The candle has been the main source of home lighting up to the introduction of electricity.





Many early candles in Greece and the Roman empire were made of flax thread coated with pitch and wax, while in other regions candles were made using oils, like coconut, palm, olive and beeswax (which is still used nowadays). Early dipped candles were made using tallow. Paraffin was only introduced in the 1800's, and to this day stays the main ingredient in candles.
