Candles, a daily lighting tool, are mainly made of paraffin, which in ancient times was usually made from animal fats. It burns and shines. In addition, the use of candles is also very extensive: there are also important uses in birthday banquets, religious holidays, collective mourning, and red and white events. In literary and artistic works, candles have the symbolic meaning of sacrifice and dedication. Modernly, it is believed that candles originated from the torches of the primitive era. Primitives applied things such as fat or wax to bark or wood chips, and bundled them together to make a torch for lighting. It is also said that in the ancient times of the pre-Qin period, some people put the mugwort and reed into a bundle, and then put some grease on it for lighting. Later, someone wrapped a hollow reed with a cloth and lit it with beeswax.
