The Day After Birthday Gift They'll Actually Want
Right, so your mate's just had a birthday. They're presumably feeling rather magnificent about getting another year older, or possibly wondering where it's all gone. Either way, we've made something rather splendid to help them through the mild existential wobble that follows. This is a handcrafted soy wax candle with a label that reads 'A candle for that post-birthday existential crisis' in our signature red and pink. It's the sort of gift that lands perfectly between thoughtful and slightly cheeky.
Why Choose Our Post Birthday Candle
Natural Soy Wax and Premium Fragrance: Each candle is filled with natural soy wax blended with premium fragrance oil, hand poured in our Manchester workshop. Nothing synthetic, nothing dodgy.
Your Scent, Your Choice: Rather than guessing what they fancy, you pick the fragrance. We create your candle to order, meaning it arrives utterly fresh and properly made just for them.
Classy Glass Container: Housed in a beautifully crafted glass vessel that doesn't look like a joke gift once the candle's burned down. It'll suit any room.
Thoughtfully Packaged: Each order is beautifully wrapped by hand in 100% recyclable packaging. Because if you're going to send someone a gift acknowledging their existential crisis, at least make the unboxing rather good.

SHIPPING + RETURNS
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!
PAYMENT
We're frightfully modern and accept all the usual suspects:
Visa, Mastercard, American Express, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Shop Pay
SECURE AS HOUSES
Everything's properly encrypted and secure - your details are safer than the Crown Jewels!
All prices in lovely British pounds £ GBP, though international chaps will see converted prices.
Any payment pickle? We're here to help sort things out! Contact us
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.
This is just the beginning. But enough about us — step inside, explore our world, and see what catches your imagination.
Giving Back
We’re proud to support Sutton Night Watch, a grassroots UK charity making a real difference in the lives of those facing homelessness. Through regular donations of stock, supplies, and essentials, we back their mission to offer warmth, dignity, and practical help to anyone in need — right where it matters most.
