About the Vendor
Our aim is simple - to design great textiles with creative intent that are rooted in the modern age and honour the human touch.
Modern innovation moves us forward at breakneck speed, leaving the precious and sacred by the wayside. The spirit and pride of craftsmanship and the beauty of imperfections that add human character to objects are being lost.
Through our work, we aim to do our part in keeping these things relevant (and offer them as an antidote) to today's busy world.
Objects made by hand with careful attention to detail and creative intent exude all the light and darkness of a complex human character. These objects speak to people on a deeper individual level in a way that uniformly manufactured utilitarian items cannot.
We want people to re-engage with this feeling and use it to ground themselves by re-kindling an appreciation for a particular rustic human sense.
