The diameter of a standard tealight candle is typically around 1.5 inches or 38 millimeters.
A candle with a thinner wick and lower melting point wax will generally burn faster than one with a thicker wick and higher melting point wax. Additionally, candles with added accelerants or chemicals designed to make them burn faster will also have a shorter burn time.
The size of the wick dertermines how large the flame is.
The burn rate of a candle is influenced by factors such as the type of wax used (e.g., paraffin, soy, beeswax), the size and composition of the wick, the presence of additives or fragrances, and external conditions like airflow and temperature. In general, softer waxes tend to burn faster than harder waxes, and a larger wick or candle diameter may lead to a faster burn rate.

A candle jar is used to contain and protect a lit candle. It helps to prevent the flame from being easily extinguished by wind or drafts and can also enhance the decor or ambiance of a space by diffusing and reflecting the candlelight.
