Our Story
Kahani is a celebration of nature, art, wanderlust, and storytelling—an ode to the vibrant cultures that shape our world. In Urdu, “kahani” (کہانی) means “story,” a universal thread woven through every culture and tradition. Stories ignite imagination, fuel passion, inspire innovation, and bring people together in shared experiences.
At Kahani, we craft scent memories that evoke the beauty of humankind and the wonders of our world. Each candle is mindfully designed to transport you on a sensory journey, kindling the flame of wanderlust from the comfort of your home.
Our Candles.
Our vegan, petroleum-free, phthalate-free, and cruelty-free hand-crafted candles are made with only the finest eco-friendly ingredients. Starting with 100% natural soy wax for a cleaner burn paired with a zinc/lead-free cotton wick. Our captivating aroma candles are curated with fragrance oils that are infused with essential oils. Our candles are always hand-poured in small batches into reusable glass containers.
Our Eco-Consciousness.
Kahani strives to leave as little carbon footprint on our beloved planet as possible. We are a brand that is environmentally conscious of the health of our planet and humankind. From the aluminum wick holders to the protective shipping wrap around our candles and the corrugated box they arrive in - all of our packaging is recyclable. To protect your orders from breakage during shipping, we may use crinkle paper filler or cornstarch-based packing peanuts (these peanuts easily dissolve in water). Lastly, our glass containers are recyclable, but they can also be upcycled and repurposed after they are thoroughly washed out.
Our Values.
Along with our commitment to protecting the planet and your health, we are committed to supporting charitable causes that help relieve suffering in our communities. We believe people and our planet are valued over profit. So, a portion of every sale will be donated to charitable organizations that share our values and mission to provide relief for our homeless neighbors and support other charitable causes close to our hearts.
