Hello, I assume you are looking for information on this. The words Diese Kerze ist Geschmacksmuster geschutzt simply mean that the candle is protected by design patents (German Copyright!). It's a form of 'eternal' candle usually to remember loved ones who have passed on and sometimes as a souvenir type candle. They are made even today, but usually have an insert now for an oil wick candle in the center. The new ones sell for about $35.00. Yours appears to be from about the 1980's ish era and, while I don't collect them, I'd estimate the price to be about $30-$40. 250chief

To my knowledge there is no really big demand for molded candles of any form, I see them at Goodwill type places for $5.00. Lovejoy
