Abstract
A modular candle holder or support device for custom design and assembly by a user. A plurality of decorative modular units having specific designs and shapes can be combined to build unique support stacks, which may be utilized as candlestick holder, lamp supports or similar vertical support devices. To connect the modular units, each unit is equipped with at least one internally and female-threaded opening to receive a double-ended, male-threaded connector piece. The double-ended male-threaded connectors join two modular units together in series. The components can be combined in numerous variations to form different style holders and ornamental configurations. In additional to holding candles, the elements of the invention may be utilized to create light holders, flower holders, or individual modular units that can stand alone as a napkin ring or tea light candle holder.
