A candle accessory is discosed that combines the functions of a venting device for containerized candles to improve the combustion efficiency and a candle holder for tapered, pillar, tea light and votive candles. The candle accessory consists of a ceramic venting chassis that includes an integral flat plate, an annular skirt, and a chimney. The chimney design of the venting chassis acts as an exhaust vent for containerized candles and as a candle holder for tapered, pillar, votive and tea light candles. The chimney extends around a central exhaust opening or vent in the chassis. The chimney has six vertical ribs that are used to support the base of conventional tapered candles. The chimney also includes an annular rim that forms a seat for supporting a tea light, votive and/or pillar candle. The venting chassis also includes three mounting feet that space the plate vertically above the brim of the candle vessel to allow inlet air flow into the candle vessel. When seated atop a jar candle, the skirt extends downward into the mouth of the candle vessel. The skirt has six longitudinal furrows that form six air flow inlet channels or vents. The furrows columnate the inlet air flow into distinct columns of air and the skirt directs the inlet air flow downward along the sidewalls of the candle vessel, which facilitates laminar air flow within a containerized candle to improve combustion.
