Abstract
A candle holding bowl has an upwardly facing hexagonal annulus joined to a downwardly facing hexagonal annulus. The upper annulus has a substantially hexagonal opening for entry into the bowl, and the lower annulus is closed by a hexagonal bottom wall. The hexagonal bottom wall of one bowl fits within the hexagonal opening of another identical bowl to permit vertical stacking of two bowls. Each hexagonal annulus comprises a plurality of flat panes which coact with each other for stacking a plurality of bowls in triangular or pyramidal fashion.
Claims11
A candle holder, comprising:
- a first set of flat panes joined edge to edge to form an upwardly facing annulus, said upwardly facing annulus comprising an upper edge defining a first plane with an upwardly facing opening therethrough;
- a second set of flat panes joined edge to edge to form a downwardly facing annulus, said downwardly facing annulus comprising a lower edge defining a second plane with a downwardly facing opening therethrough;
- said first annulus and said second annulus being joined together at a third plane;
- and
- a bottom wall closing said downwardly facing opening along said second plane;
- said first, second, and third planes being substantially parallel;
- the angles that each of said panes of said first and second set of flat panes forms with any one of said planes being equal to each other;
- and
- wherein said first set of flat panes and said second set of flat panes are joined so as to form a fixed, unitary structure.
A set of stackable candle holders, comprising:
- a plurality of substantially identical candle holders, including a first lower candle holder and an upper candle holder, each candle holder comprising:
- a first set of flat panes joined edge to edge to form an upwardly facing annulus, said upwardly facing annulus comprising an upper edge defining a first plane with an upwardly facing opening therethrough;
- a second set of flat panes joined edge to edge to form a downwardly facing annulus, said downwardly facing annulus comprising a lower edge defining a second plane with a downwardly facing opening therethrough;
- said first annulus and said second annulus being joined together at a third plane;
- a bottom wall closing said downwardly facing opening along said second plane;
- said first, second, and third planes being parallel;
- the angles that each of said panes of said first and second set of flat panes forms with any one of said planes being equal to each other;
- wherein each of said plurality of substantially identical candle holders comprises a fixed, unitary structure;
- and
- said plurality of candle holders are capable of being stacked.
A candle holder, comprising:
- a first set of six flat panes joined edge to edge to form an upwardly facing annulus, said upwardly facing annulus comprising an upper edge defining a first plane with an upwardly facing opening therethrough;
- a second set of six flat panes joined edge to edge to form a downwardly facing annulus, said downwardly facing annulus comprising a lower edge defining a second plane with a downwardly facing opening therethrough;
- said first annulus and said second annulus being joined together at a third plane;
- a bottom wall closing said downwardly facing opening along said second plane;
- said first, second, and third planes being substantially parallel;
- and
- wherein said first set of six flat panes and said second set of six flat panes are joined to form a fixed, unitary structure.
