Flaming Idols are altar candles featuring inspiring figures of the LGBTQ community, created and handmade by Philadelphia artist and activist Robin Markle. 
Niecy Nash is an actress and television host with a career spanning 2+ decades. She won a Daytime Emmy for her role hosting the TV show Clean House. She has also held roles in political historical dramas such as Selma and Mrs.America. When Niecy married singer Jessica Betts in 2020, media was quick to call it a “coming out” but Niecy corrected this, saying, “I don’t feel like my marriage is my coming out of anywhere, but rather a going into myself and being honest about who I love."
Candle is hand-poured with soy wax and burns for approximately 10 hours. Glass votives are 2.5in high and 2in wide at the base.
