From ancient times, when fire helped ensure human survival, to
today’s romantic candlelit dinner, the magic and mystery of flames have
entranced and enchanted us.
The concept of color temperature has permeated our everyday language. For example, we use the term "red hot" to qualify everything from a fashion trend, to a spicy food, to a temperature hot enough to melt iron. However, terms related to color temperature can lead to confusion, especially when talking about flames themselves. Incandescence does color a flame, but it is not the only source of its color.
