The Perfect 40th Birthday Gift That Actually Makes Them Laugh

Right, let's be honest. Turning 40 is rather a big deal, and your newly minted 40-year-old friend deserves something that acknowledges the sheer absurdity of it all. This splendid candle does precisely that, with a rather cheeky warning label that reads Thirties Expired. It's the sort of thing that'll earn a proper laugh when unwrapped, which is more than can be said for most birthday gifts.

Why Choose Our 40th Birthday Candle

A Witty Wake-Up Call: The tongue-in-cheek design gently reminds the birthday person that they've officially entered a new decade. It's affectionate mockery at its finest.

Conversation Starter: This isn't the sort of gift that gets shoved in a drawer. Guests will spot it immediately and ask about it, which means your thoughtfulness gets remarked upon repeatedly.

Beautifully Crafted: Beyond the joke lies a rather good candle that actually smells marvellous. It burns evenly and lasts rather longer than you'd expect.

Perfect for Any Space: Whether displayed on a desk, shelf, or coffee table, this candle adds a touch of delightfully stylish humour to any room.

Product Details

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.

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.
