Handcrafted Taper Candles That Actually Make Your Home Look Rather Good
Look, we'll be honest. We didn't set out to revolutionise the candle world. But then we made these ribbed taper candles, and rather unexpectedly, they've become rather splendid at making any room feel warmer and altogether more civilised. They're the sort of thing you didn't know you needed until you did.
Why Choose Our Ribbed Taper Candles
Beautifully Handcrafted Design: Each candle is made with care using natural soy wax, featuring a distinctive ribbed texture that catches light rather marvellously and adds visual interest to any mantelpiece, dining table, or shelf.
Versatile Colour Selection: Available in both calming neutral tones and soft pastels, these candles complement virtually any interior scheme without any fussy faffing about with colour coordination.
Proper Ambiance: Whether displayed individually or grouped together, they create a glorious, warm atmosphere that somehow makes everything feel a touch more intentional and rather pleasant.
Soy Wax Quality: Made from sustainable soy wax, these candles burn with genuine character and deliver hours of soft, flickering light.
Product Details
Dimensions: 23 centimetres long, 2 centimetres wide at the top, 3.8 centimetres wide at the base
Material: Natural soy wax
Finish: Hand-finished with ribbed texture
Care Instructions: Always place on a heat safe tray when burning. Do not leave unattended. These candles have a slight dripping tendency, which rather adds to their handmade charm, if we're being perfectly frank.
These are the candles discerning types have been quietly requesting. The sort that makes your home feel intentional. Rather fabulous, really.
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!

Visa, Mastercard, American Express, PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Shop Pay

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.
