Is that headless figure lead (Pb)? Might not want to put that in a candle?!

Don't lick it and it will be fine. Lead danger is really scare-monger tactics to avert your attention from the real sources of lead poisoning: lead additives in fuels.
Good to know, still amazes me people used to drink lead acetate in wine and cider because it would sweeten it 🤦♂️
I'm pretty sure it is but it'll be ok. I found it sticking out of the ground a couple years ago. It's probably less of an environmental hazard in my candle than there. Cool little thing. I forgot I had it. I think it's 100(ish) years old.
