Welcome to the Kindred Fires press office!
Kindred Fires creates thoughtful personalised candle gifts to celebrate life's milestones and occasions.
Founded in the midst of the Covid pandemic in 2020, when distance separated loved ones more than ever, Kindred Fires emerged as a way to send meaningful gifts to family and friends when seeing them wasn't an option. Since that time we've expanded our range of thoughtful personalised candle gifts and created a home fragrance range celebrating our house fragrances that have become firm favourites of our customers.
Over 250,000 customers later, Kindred Fires is one of the largest candle brands on Etsy and Notonthehighstreet and is continuing to grow. Significant investment into a new manufacturing space in Trafford Park, Manchester has helped support this growth.
Kindred Fires is a family run business, run by wife and husband team, Grace Sherriff & Paul Dickinson and is now part of their Candle Makery group of candle brands.

Press coverage
"Made of natural soy wax with essential oil blends, every Kindred Fires candle is crafted by hand. All the scents are beautiful but, for Christmas, we love this blend of cinnamon bark, clove bud and sweet orange."
Country Living
"Shoppers are swearing they're better than Diptyque which regularly costs over £50 a candle."
Mirror
"No candle round-up would be complete without a personalised design. This beautiful Christmas candle by Kindred Fires has notes of orange and cinnamon, ideal for the winter season. Handcrafted by the team, the natural soy wax candle is hand-poured and placed in a shiny apothecary-style jar with lid."
