Abstract
A multifunction decorative torch comprising has a base providing an upwardly directed light, a cap supporting a liquid fueled torch insert having a wick and a fuel reservoir, and an outer wall supporting the cap and defining an interior space between the base and cap. The upwardly directed light illuminates the outer wall from within the interior space. The liquid fueled torch insert is supported by the cap such that the wick burns outside the interior space between the base and cap and the fuel reservoir is at least partially inside the interior space between the base and cap.

A multifunction decorative torch comprising:
- a base providing an upwardly directed light;
- a liquid fueled torch insert having a wick and a fuel reservoir;
- a cap supporting the liquid fueled torch insert;
- and
- an outer wall supporting the cap and defining an interior space between the base and cap;
- wherein the upwardly directed light is below and spaced apart from the fuel reservoir, and the fuel reservoir has a width providing a spacing between the outer wall and the fuel reservoir, such that the upwardly directed light illuminates the entirety of the outer wall surrounding the fuel reservoir from below the fuel reservoir;
- and
- wherein the liquid fueled torch insert is supported by the cap such that the wick burns outside the interior space between the base and cap and the fuel reservoir is at least partially inside the interior space between the base and cap.
A multifunction decorative torch comprising:
- a cylindrical outer wall defining an interior and an exterior of the multifunction decorative torch;
- a base supporting the cylindrical outer wall and having a plurality of user activated LEDs placed within the base to selectively illuminate the interior;
- and
- a liquid fuel burning insert having a fuel burning wick at least partially inserted into a axially symmetric fuel reservoir, the fuel reservoir being supported relative to the outer wall and situated at least partially within the interior defined by the cylindrical outer wall;
- wherein the fuel reservoir is sized and supported such that every portion of the outer wall adjacent to the fuel reservoir may be illuminated by at least one of the plurality of LEDs without shadow from the fuel reservoir;
- wherein the LEDs illuminate the interior from within the base through a single central opening in the base provided with a protective cover;
- and wherein the LED is below and spaced apart from the fuel reservoir, and the fuel reservoir has a width providing a spacing between the outer wall and the fuel reservoir, such that the LED illuminates the entirely of the outer wall surrounding the fuel reservoir from below the fuel reservoir.
