A replica flame for simulating a flame on a wick extending from a top of a candle positioned in a candlestick. Said replica flame comprising:
a three-dimensional flame body
a rigid pin extending from a base side of said three-dimensional flame body, said rigid pin being able to pierce the top of the candle for connecting said simultated three-dimensional flame body to the top end of the candle at the wick wherein said replica flame creates an illusion of a flame burning on the wick of the candle thereby producing the appearance that the candle is lit
The replica flame as recited in claim 1. further including said three-dimensional flame body includes a vertical groove on one side thereof for receiving the wick of the candle.
The replica flame as recited in claim 1. wherein said elongated rigid pin is fabricated out of a material selected from any one of metal, plastic, wood, ceramic, any suitable rigid material and any combination thereof.
The replica flame as recited in claim 1. wherein said simulated three-dimensional flame body is a pear shaped member having realistic colors of a natural flame duplicated thereon.
The replica flame as recited in claim 4. wherein said pear shaped member includes commercial coloring agents imbedded therein and applied onto an outer surface thereof.
The replica flame as recited in claim 4. wherein said pear shaped member further includes an additional threatment of glitter material or flame emulating reflecting agents, for optimizing realism as if the candle is really burning.
The replica flame as recited in claim 4. wherein said pear shaped member further includes an additional treatment of fluorescent material to optimize realism as if the candle is really burning.
The replica flame as recited in claim 4. wherein said pear shaped member is fabricated out of at least one of papier-mache, injected/extruded plastic, ceramic, china, glass, porcelain, plaster, wood, metal and any combination thereof.
The replica flame as recited in claim 4. wherein said pear shaped member is constructed by a technique selected from the group consisting of stamping, forming, molding and casting.
The replica flame as recited in claim 1, wherein said rigid pin is releasably connected to extend from an underside of said three-dimensional flame body.
The replica flame as recited in claim 10. wherein said rigid pin further includes a connector for releasably engaging said underside of said three-dimensional flame body.
The replica flame as recited in claim 1. wherein said rigid pin is integrally connected to an underside of said three-dimensional flame body.
