Welcome to Persephone Light Co.!

Hello, candle-loving friends! My name is Sarah and I’m the creator behind Persephone Light Co. It has been a busy, busy month here at Persephone Light Co.

We have 5 Summer Sea Faire Boxes left for purchase. We have sold out of each of the boxes that we have offered, so if you would like one, I recommend purchasing now! Please DO NOT purchase or subscribe to the box (or other gift boxes) with other purchases, as this will cause issues for tracking and fulfilling your order. All shipping is free, so you will not incur any additional charges by completing more than one transaction.

We are also excited to announce that you are able to subscribe, so that you never miss a box! You can now subscribe at any time on the website! You can also cancel at anytime! Be sure to get on the list as the spaces are limited, being a subscriber is the only way to guarantee that you will be able to purchase a box every time! Our next collection release will be Tales from the Hinterlands - our spooky autumn line. We have candles inspired by spooky tales such as The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, Mothman, Lizzie Borden, and many more! This sale will go live at 7 PM EST on September 11th. Check out our Instagram feed for sneak peeks of this collection!

The Story of Persephone Light Co.

About the designer

Hi, friends! My name is Sarah. I’m a lifelong bibliophile and love to create. You can usually find me in my reading nook or in my studio making something or other. I’m from a sleepy, little historic town nestled at the convergence of two beautiful rivers where history and year round ghost tours are a way of life. I love our little corner of paradise here in West Virginia and feel inspired daily by our spooky history and stunning vistas. 

Persephone Light Co.

Persephone Light Co. is my little dream child borne from my love of books, a dark & dreamy aesthetic, and my constant need for atmosphere. Candles can create beautiful light and purvey transportive aromas. I design each of my candles in hopes that they will enrich your space and create an unforgettable experience. 

Why Persephone?

I chose the likeness of Persephone as representation, as I feel she is a dynamic embodiment of both the dark and beautiful. She was both the goddess of spring & the mistress of the underworld. Don’t we all have a little bit of darkness and lightness in our hearts? “Our hearts are wild creatures, that is why our ribs are cages.”(Unknown)

I don’t know how you get a candle to literally smell like a Gothic Mansion, but Sarah nailed it!

Lori, Book Reviewer & Customer

These candles [from Persephone Light Co.] are just what you need. You don’t even have to light them for the scent to be all over the room.

Manda, Book Reviewer & Customer

There’s a new candle shop in town, Persephone Light Co. uses cool wooden wicks that crackle as they burn. She’s a friend, but the candles smell and look amazing.
