Tiki torch

A tiki torch is a pole-mounted torch, typically made of bamboo, that originated in the tiki culture of mid-20th-century United States, which has increased in popularity and spread elsewhere as a popular party decoration with a tropical island aesthetic. Though early mass-produced torches were made of aluminum or other metal, the most familiar style of tiki torch consists of a bamboo stick with a container of flammable fluid at the top from which the lit wick draws.
