      alcohol gel pot, the little tins with blue goo in them used by caterers.

      Though judging by the small glass in there you either burn alcohol directly or use a candle.

        Ah, thank for the explanation. No, we are using small candles.

          In the US we call them “tea candles” and I only now realized why.
