I'm very disappointed in this candle and the way it burned. It developed a hole on one side near the top. I tried to plug it. burned some more and candle developed a six inch split down the side. It is no longer useable. This candle is a memory dedication candle for me. My son was a NYS Trooper and killed in the line of duty almost 15 years ago. I find much peace watching it burn and glow. At present it is not "burnable".
