<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Shangas, post: 195849, member: 360&quot;]I&#039;m fairly sure that coloured candles are a 19th century invention. </p><p><br /></p><p>Before that, candles were made of anything that would burn. Mutton-fat, beef-fat...not always beeswax. And candles on their own were expensive (and taxed). So I figure that it wasn&#039;t until they became much cheaper that it became possible to muck around with cute little coloured candles... That&#039;s my theory anyway.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
