Abstract

Vents and voids are provided in the lid to help dissipate heat from a live candle. A post may be removably disposed on an underside of the lid to receive interior inserts such as a basket, jewelry holder or medication vial holder. The container may be used as a canister when the post and interior inserts are absent. A cover may be used and disposed over the lid to trap a candle between the cover and the lid. The base of the container has an interior wall and an exterior wall defining a compartment in which graphics may be disposed.
