Our Story
About Us
Concrete vessels. Custom scents. Made in Erie, Colorado.
We're Connor and Sam—one of us is a engineer, the other keeps the chaos in check. After getting hooked on blending our own scents at a local candle bar, we started experimenting at home. But we didn't just want to pour candles into the same glass jars everyone else uses. We wanted to build something different.
So we designed our own vessels. Each one is cast by hand from concrete in our home studio. The bamboo lids are made by a local Colorado woodworker. Even our shipping boxes come from a local manufacturer.
The name Cedar & Stone is a nod to both of us (C & S) and the materials we chose—wood and concrete. Natural, durable, and designed to look good on a shelf whether the
candle is lit or not.
Our process is technical because that's how we think. Every fragrance blend gets tested for scent throw. Every vessel gets inspected. We track what works and iterate on what doesn't.
The result is a candle that burns clean, smells incredible, and sits in your home like it belongs there.
