Patent attributes
An eversible candle holder comprises a flexible generally cylindrical body capable of being manipulated between rest and everted configurations, the body having sidewalls extending upwardly from a base. In the rest configuration the central portion of a heat sink is seated on a central pedestal of the base and a horizontal lip extending from a skirt wall depending from the pedestal's central portion is disposed in an inwardly-facing recess in a recessed perimeter portion of the base and is locked in the recess by an overlapping inwardly-extending retaining flange. In an everted configuration, the locking flange is rotated outwardly about an annular hinge section away from the central pedestal opening the recess a sufficient width to release the lip, enabling removal of the heat sink from the base, and facilitating disposal of candle wax accumulated in the bottom of the holder.
