Our Partnership
Serlumé was born from a shared desire between father and son to create something tangible, refined, and enduring. While our backgrounds are different, we share a singular obsession: the pursuit of the perfect atmosphere. We founded Serlumé not just to build a brand, but to master the chemistry of scent and light.
The Serlumé Process
Our partnership is built on a balance of roles. One of us focuses on the meticulous engineering of the product—perfecting the wax-to-fragrance ratios and streamlining our studio operations—while the other focuses on the sensory narrative and the aesthetic direction of the brand. Together, we ensure that every candle is a cohesive piece of functional art.
Crafted in USA
From our design lab in North Carolina or our production in Pennsylvania, we hand-pour every batch . We believe that family-owned means more than just a label; it means a personal guarantee of quality. Because our names are behind every vessel, we don't take shortcuts. We use only the finest soy-coconut blends and premium cotton wicks to ensure that what you bring into your home is something we are proud to have in ours.
Beyond the Scent
Our mission is to move beyond the one-dimensional scents of the past. We work side-by-side to develop "atmospheric anchors"—candles designed to change the mood of a room the moment the match is struck. For us, Serlumé is more than a business; it’s a legacy of craftsmanship passed from one generation to the next.
After retiring from a long professional career, he founded Serlumé to explore the "chemistry of atmosphere." Rather than creating simple, two-note scents, Richard treats fragrance as a sensory extension of his visual art—composing complex, multi-layered moods that evoke a sense of place and presence. Today, he works alongside his son to hand-pour small-batch candles that serve as anchors for serenity and reflection in the modern home.

William brings a technical and meticulous perspective to the Serlumé studio. Focused on the precision of the "gold standard" blend, he oversees the engineering behind every pour—optimizing wax-to-fragrance ratios to ensure a clean, consistent burn.
For William, the beauty of a candle lies in its performance. He balances his father’s artistic vision with a disciplined approach to production, ensuring that every Serlumé vessel meets a high standard of quality and technical excellence. Together, they have built a family brand dedicated to the science of atmosphere and the art of craftsmanship.
