Its been a huge few weeks, along with a handful of other projects that as a team we’ve been ticking off, we were beyond thrilled to get our beautiful giant lampshades finished & carefully packed on their way to location.

We’re fortunate over the years to have pulled together a team of incredibly talented & passionate people, it makes doing projects like this so much easier & above all fun.

With majority of the hard work done, we can now get started on the table lamps.

It’s a pleasure everyday to search for fabrics that are used to create textile marvels, whether for big productions, like film & television, or for personal enjoyment, creating keepsakes & gifts.

The cherry on top of this dream job of ours is that we committed to finding textiles made from natural fibres, & working with suppliers who go on to support their communities & ancient traditions.

Our latest handmade masterpiece is Organic Handloom H**p Gauze, an exceptionally durable, sustainable, & breathable textile made from the stalks of the Cannabis sativa plant. Offering superior strength, bold character & most importantly requires minimal water & pesticides to grow.

This rich rustic fabric holds a slightly stiff, structured drape & highly textured hand feel, as with any character filled, handmade organic fabrics its artisanal rough qualities soften & become more relaxed & beautiful with every wear & wash.

A loose open weave allows light to filter through, creating a striking visual impact, and texturally rich material perfect for slow fashion & natural home styling. Ideal for home décor, airy drapes, table runners & set & costume design.

Tis the season, as the weather clears the workshops begin.

This week alone has welcomed a plethora of enquiries, which of course we’re more than happy to discuss with you. But we thought we’d aid those still umming and ahing through our huge range with a beautiful suggestion.

The ever so polar Silk Noil Knitted scarf is popular for a reason, many actually.
100% percent Pure Silk Noil & crafted by hand with a distinctive surface texture that will soften with every wear & wash, its the perfect specimen for natural dyes & eco printing.

A personal favourite of ours, we know it will create vibrant, rich colours, that even after years of wear & love, fade in a way that still retain beauty & charm, something chemical dyes could never achieve.

The size & width of this stunning scarf makes experimenting easy & affordable, perfect for workshops, small businesses & personal use.

We even offer generous discount for larger orders.

Beneath the smooth, soft, elegant & gentle appearance of premium pure Silk it’s brimming with power.
A continuous natural protein filament packed with tight nano-sized beta-sheet crystals and millions of microscopic hydrogen bonds that absorb stress. Pound-for-pound, its tensile strength rivals that of steel wire.

Thats why so called “waste products” of this phenomenal fibre gets our creative juices flowing.

Soft & fluffy, matte in appearance & full of sericin which is a great binder for Silk paper, used for adding texture & when dyed, colour in collages, nuno felting, silk fusion, needle felting, spinning, & stitch work.

Aside from its classic uses many talented at home beauty enthusiasts use it to gently exfoliate, moisturise, and infuse the skin with amino acids when soaked and rubbed against your skin.

There is absolutely no waste products of any kind when it comes to the wonders of pure premium Silk
