Blunt, and aimed at one person: ‘Old age is coming for all of us. But you’re first, you old fucker!’, with a cartoon pensioner slumped in an armchair holding a number-40 mug. A 40th birthday present for the mate who got there before the rest of the group and will not be allowed to forget it. Buy it, hand it over, stand back.

Your candle questions answered.

How does the multi-buy work?
Your first candle is £20, your second is £15, your third is £10, and your fourth is just £5. That is four candles for £50 instead of £80, taken off automatically in your basket.

Mix any designs and any occasions you like. Every candle after the fourth is £5 too, so eight candles is £70.

When will my order arrive?
Orders placed before 4pm Monday to Friday are sent the same day. Delivery is free on orders over £25, and you’ll see the available delivery options at checkout. Delivery dates are estimates, so please allow extra time during busy periods.
Can I send it straight to the recipient?
Yes. Enter their address as the delivery address at checkout. The candle arrives in its own presentation tube.
What does this label say?
Forty. Old age is coming for all of us. But you're first, you old fucker!
