Uses of liquid paraffin available in our online store

The liquid paraffin that can be purchased in our online store has a very specific use, fuel for lamps, candles, and lanterns for parochial or domestic use.

The use of liquid wax as fuel for lamps, candles, candlesticks, candelabra, candleholders, etc. has many years of history.  Before the arrival of electricity in homes, liquid wax lamps were one of the main sources of lighting in many countries.

The operation of these lamps or candlesticks was very similar to the items that can be bought today. They worked by burning the liquid paraffin stored in a tank and was fed through a wick.
