Abstract
A display device for creating a backlit effect on a display article—such as a photograph—with a candle. The display device includes a candle container and a display panel attached to the wall of the candle container by a stand-off. The wall of the candle, display panel, and stand-off together form a pocket for receiving a sleeve which receives a display article. Both the display panel, inside wall and sleeve allow the light of the candle to transmit through the display device and create a backlit effect on the display article that is viewable through the display panel.
