Rather Good Hand Poured Candles That Actually Smell Fabulous
Look, we'll be honest with you. We pour these candles in Scotland using sustainable rapeseed and coconut wax, and we take the whole thing terribly seriously. Dark Honey and Sandalwood is our attempt at capturing something rather special: sandalwood that knows its place (centre stage), a whisper of tonka bean for depth, and the sort of comforting richness that makes you wonder why you didn't light one sooner.
Why Choose Our Small Candle?
Proper burn time: Approximately 15 hours of honest, even burning. No funny business.
Beautifully crafted: Hand poured with the sort of care that borders on obsessive. Each one is rather good.
Eco-conscious: We use quality premium oils and eco-friendly glitter. Because we rather like the planet.
That woody elegance: Sandalwood-forward, with tonka bean adding the sort of depth that makes your room smell like you've actually got your life together.

How to Get the Best From Your Candle
Trim your wick to one quarter inch before lighting. Keep it away from flammable bits like curtains and furniture. Use a proper candle holder. Extinguish it when you leave the room or head to bed. Don't move it about while it's alight. Never use water to put it out. Keep multiple candles at a sensible distance from one another. For outdoor use, shelter it from the wind. Always exercise caution when lighting and extinguishing.
These guidelines will help you enjoy the rather glorious beauty of a properly made candle without any fuss or worry.

THE RATHER IMPORTANT BITS
This rather lovely piece ships directly from our brand partner - we work with independent brands who are absolutely brilliant and work frightfully hard to create beautiful things.
SHIPPING DESTINATIONS
Now, here's the thing - our wonderful brand partners ship to lots of different places, but not all of them can ship worldwide.
Some are brilliant at international shipping, others prefer to keep things closer to home.
At checkout, you'll see exactly where this particular brand can send your goodies.
We're terribly sorry, but shipping costs do vary rather wildly depending on where you are in the world. The exact figures pop up at checkout - no nasty surprises!
RETURNS
You have 14 days to return items.
Now, we absolutely adore our brand partners - they work incredibly hard and we do try to support them as much as we possibly can. So I'm rather afraid we have to pass the return postage costs back to you. Frightfully sorry about that!
🌍 PLEASE CHOOSE THOUGHTFULLY:
Our wonderful partners put their hearts into everything they make.
Ordering multiple sizes to try at home is rather hard on our planet and makes things jolly difficult for these brilliant independent creators.
When in doubt, do ask us first!

We Have Lots More Like This.........
Hello, we are Sostter....
Sostter began, as all good ideas do, with a lively conversation and a shared sense of frustration. Why had the world of independent design become so serious, so samey, so… beige? Where was the spark, the imagination, the sheer joy of discovering something that made you stop and stare?
We dreamt of a marketplace that celebrated difference — where curious minds could explore a world of independent brands, design-led makers, and thoughtful artisans. A space that felt exciting, human, and beautifully imperfect. Today, Sostter brings together remarkable people and their creations — from London to Lausanne, Brooklyn to Berlin — uniting makers and discoverers through craftsmanship, creativity, and conscience.
Every object tells a story, and every purchase supports an independent brand doing things differently. Explore our British makers, discover sustainable brands, browse women-led businesses, find the perfect gift for her, or simply wander through our new arrivals and see what finds you.
This is just the beginning. But enough about us — read all about us, or step inside and see what catches your imagination.
A Curated Marketplace for Independent Ethical Brands
Discover our world of independent brands, conscious design, and purposeful creativity — all in one place.
Sostter is more than a marketplace. We're here to inspire a more thoughtful way to shop — one that celebrates the makers, the dreamers, and the independent brands doing things properly. Every brand on Sostter has been individually vetted for its originality, quality, and values. From sustainable fashion and ethical homeware to handmade jewellery and design-led gifts — all brought together in one considered space. Browse by location, by purpose, or simply wander and see what finds you. Want to sell with us? We'd love to hear from you.
