The evolution history of candles: the transformation from practicality to art
In the long river of human civilization, candles, as an ancient and important lighting tool, have witnessed the vicissitudes of history. From its initial simplicity and practicality to its current status as a carrier of art and creativity, the evolution of candles is not only a chronicle of technological progress, but also a vivid portrayal of human aesthetic and cultural changes.
The birth of practical lighting
As early as ancient times, humans learned to use fire to drive away darkness and warm their bodies. With the development of civilization, people began to explore more stable and controllable lighting methods, and candles emerged. Early candles were mostly made from animal fat or vegetable oil, and their shapes were simple, but they were sufficient to meet basic lighting needs. In the Qin and Han dynasties, the production process of candles gradually matured, and various types such as cream candles and honey candles emerged, marking the widespread popularity of candles as a lighting tool.
In the Ming and Qing dynasties, especially during the Ming dynasty, the candle industry reached unprecedented prosperity. At this time, the types of candles are more diverse, including animal fat candles, plant fat candles, and mixed material candles, and the production techniques are becoming increasingly exquisite. The application of mold pouring method and candle pouring method makes candle production more efficient and the quality more stable.
