I have a decorative candle in this blue wine glass thing. Is it safe to burn a candle in a glass container?
Who would make such a ridiculous candle that it's dangerous to burn? I'm pretty sure the hot wax will break the glass, won't it?
The only way it might (and not even then for sure) break the glass is if the flame is hitting directly on the glass. Hot wax will have no effect at all. The glass will get warm to the touch from the radiant heat, but it is even all over so no great stress on the glass which is what causes cracks. Don't dump the hot glass into cold water if you think you have a reason to. An oil candle, where the wick floats or sits in a pool of liquid oil can get hotter. I have not heard of a wax candle in a glass getting hot enough to melt into a TV.
