I am not putting this out there as an export I am far from one. I am just saying what little I know and that I would not take the chance. I hope you find your answer from someone who truly knows, antique dealers and shop.

My daughter buys ones in good condition at antique stores, uses soy wax. Is that safe? They pour at only 115 degrees but I know the burning flame is much hotter. Thanks.

Will that be safe? What kinds of wax melt at lower heat? Is a certain kind of wick better?
