At True Vintage Candle, sustainability begins not with materials but with a mindset. We believe the most sustainable candle is one designed to be cherished, not discarded. That’s why we start with vessels that already exist, each one discovered and reimagined. We search antique fairs, estate collections, and small-town markets to find one-of-a-kind pieces. By repurposing these timeless objects, we reduce the demand for new production and extend the lifespan of already-loved materials. Through our refill program, customers can send their vintage vessels back to us for a fresh pour, ensuring that their favorite piece continues to illuminate their space for years to come.

Clean ingredients, thoughtfully crafted

Every candle is hand-poured with our proprietary coconut beeswax blend, free from paraffin, phthalates, and toxins. We use non-toxic, high-performance fragrance oils and cotton wicks to ensure a slow, clean, and radiant burn—safe for both your home and the environment.

Packaging that leaves less behind

Our shipping materials are minimal, recyclable, and responsibly sourced. We use recyclable boxes, paper-based wrapping, and avoid unnecessary plastics wherever possible. Sustainability is built into every layer—from the box to the burn.

A giving engine, not just a candle

True Vintage Candle exists to give more than it takes. A portion of every sale supports young adults aging out of foster care, helping them find stability, education, and opportunity. Our sustainability mission is about people as much as it is about the planet. Commerce with compassion—that’s our true legacy.
