A Rather Splendid Tribute to Beauty and Fragrance
Inspired by Venus, the Roman goddess of love, beauty, and all things rather marvellous, this hand poured body candle is our attempt at capturing timeless elegance in wax form. We may have overreached slightly, but the results are quite the showstopper.
Why Choose Our Venus Body Candle
Beautifully Handcrafted: Each candle is poured by hand in London using only soy wax, premium fragrance oils, and natural dyes. Think of it as the artisanal candle equivalent of a bespoke suit, except it smells rather better.
Utterly Unique: Every Venus candle arrives with its own personality. Some bear subtle colour variations that give them a rather fetching stone sculpture aesthetic. We consider these charming imperfections rather than flaws, rather like a Hugh Grant film but for your home.
Goddess Inspired Design: The bust form channels classical symbolism from pomegranates and roses to pearls and doves. It sits on a shelf or dresser like you've just nipped off to the British Museum.
Gorgeously Scented: This white iteration carries its own distinctive fragrance profile, carefully paired with its pristine finish. The scent lingers without being pushy, much like a well-mannered guest.
Product Details
Materials: Soy wax, fragrance oils, natural dyes
Craft Method: Hand poured in London

Customisation: We rather enjoy creating custom Venus candles tailored to your preferences and colour choices. Do reach out if you'd like something entirely your own.
Each Venus candle tells its own story and deserves a proper home. Rather good gifts for those who appreciate the finer things, or simply a marvellous treat for yourself.
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!

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.
