CONSOLE SET Filed July 25, 1946 Patented Apr. 19, 1949 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE CONSOLE SET John W. Williams, Baltimore, Md. Application July 25, 1946, Serial No. 686,204
3 Claims.
This invention refers to combination flower and candle holders and more particularly to those of a candelabra class.
The conventional holders for candles are constructed in the form of a central post with branches extending outwardly and terminating with individual sockets for the candles. The use of flowers in conjunction with the holders is usually arranged for in a very haphazard manner.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a new and improved combination candle and flower holding fixture that will avoid one or more of the disadvantages and limitations of the prior art.
A further object of the invention is to provide a new and improved combination flower and candle holding fixture that will afiord means for extinguishing the candle after it has burned to a predetermined level.
An additional object of the herein described invention is to provide a new and improved combination flower and candle fixture concentrated in a single homogeneous structure that will be attractive and effective for the purposes in question.
Other objects will become apparent as the invention is more fully set forth.
For an understanding of the invention, reference is made to the appended drawings and the following description, which together illustrate a particular form of the invention by way of example, while the scope of the invention is emphasized in the claims.
Referring to the drawings:
Figure 1 is a side view of a combination flower holder and a candelabra embodying this invention;
Figure 2 is a plan view of Figure 1;
Figure 3 is an end view of Figure 1;
Figure 4 is a side elevation of a, modified form of the invention;
Figure 5 is aplan view of Figure 4;
Figure 6 is an end view of Figure 4, and
Figure 7 is a sectional view taken along line 'l'! of Figure 5 showing the insertable candle socket.
Similar reference characters refer to similar parts throughout the drawings.
In the construction shown in the drawings, a combination flower and candle fixture ll) of a general rectangular form is indicated, with the middle portion II given an arcuate contour having an open arched space beneath it. The ex terior surface I! of the outer wall is of an embellished design having a raised rope-like form.
The material of which the fixture is made is preferably of glass or other materials of similar translucent nature. The material and design provide an appearance of mixed colors from the lighted candles l9 used and the flowers l8 placed in the fixture. Sockets I3 are depressed into the upper portion of the fixture to suit the form of the base of the candles employed. These sockets are preferably provided with ribs l4 that lock into the candle and hold it securely. The sockets are suitably separated from each other and have a welled space I 5 in between. The upper portion of each socket is widened all around and serves to hold an amount of water l6 around the base of the candle above the portion within the socket proper 13. This water extinguishes the candle automatically when it is burned down to that level and prevents it injuring the fixture with its flame. The flowers l8 with their stems cut are inserted in the welled space I5 in which water is also held, to keep them lively.
The lighted candles shine over the fixture and spread their illumination thereto. This induces irridescent effects, which are increased when the coloring of the flowers is added thereto. Outside coloring efiects are produced by surrounding reflections which when absorbed, diverted spectrumed, and distributed by the rounded embellished surfaces of the fixture, serve to add to its attractiveness, without detracting from the light of the candles and the beauty of the flowers.
While but one general form of the invention is shown in the drawings and described in the specifications, it is not desired to limit this application for patent to this particular form or in any other way otherwise than limited by the scope thereof, as it is appreciated that other forms of construction could be made that would use the same principles and come within the scope of the appended claims.
Having thus described the invention; what is claimed is:
1. A combination flower and candle fixture comprising a base of quasi-rectangular form having spaces therein for the insertion of cut flowers therein, and sockets for the insertion and holding of candles therein, said sockets having their upper portion of enlarged form and adapted to contain water therein to encompass the bottom of the candles placed therein to extinguish them when they have burned to the level of the water.
2. A combination flower and candle fixture comprising a, base of quasi-rectangular form having spaces therein for the insertion of cut flowers therein, and sockets for the insertion and holding of candles therein, said sockets having their upper portion of enlarged form and adapted to contain water therein to encompass the bottom of the candles placed therein to extinguish them when they have burned to the level of the water, said fixture being made of translucent material and embellished on its Walls to induce variable reflections and light effects from the lighted candles and flowers placed in the fixture.
3. A combination flower and candle fixture comprising a base of quasi-rectangular form having spaces therein for the insertion of cut flowers therein, and vertical sockets for the insertion and 7 holding of candles therein, said sockets having their upper portion of enlarged form and adapted to contain water therein to encompass the bottom of the candles place-d therein to extinguish them when they have burned to the level of the water, said fixture being made of exteriorly translucent material and embellished on its walls to induce variable reflections and light effects from the lighted candles and flowers placed in the fixture, said middle portion of the fixture being of an arched form with the candle socket portions extending therefrom.
