Our Story
We found a better way of doing candles.
Siblings was born out of a simple question: Why do candles create so much waste? We decided to design a better burn—cleaner, refillable, and better looking too.
-
Why do candles come in single-use jars?
The candle aisle was full of excess—excess glass, excess waste, excess branding that didn’t feel like us. We loved scent and ritual, but not the waste they created. So we asked: Could a candle be designed to refill?
-
We designed the candle we wanted, but couldn’t find.
Clean ingredients. Compostable refills. A ceramic vessel that fits in any room and lasts forever. We launched with just one scent and one vessel, melting wax on the stovetop in our apartment. That first batch sold out in hours.
-
A better burn, for a better future.
Today, millions of Siblings candles have replaced single-use jars—producing 76% less waste than traditional candles. We’re building a refill system for modern living—where scent, sustainability, and style can actually coexist.
