Union of London began in the capital, before its makers returned home to their native Leicestershire, where the candles are now made. This unique hand poured soy wax candle uses quality fragrances and essential oils for a clean burn.

A small and exceptionally useful trug, handmade in English oak in Rutland.
Divided into two compartments with a balanced flat handle, it is finished with considered details including traditional corner joinery and a French nail securing the handle.
Compact enough to keep close at hand, it is made for the smaller things you use often, bringing a little order and giving everyday objects a place of their own. Cutlery and napkins, pencils and paintbrushes, sewing things, seed packets, string and secateurs. A place for whatever you like to have within reach.
Lead time
6 weeks. Please get in touch should you have any urgent requirements and we will accommodate what we can.
A wheel-thrown ceramic plant pot with a hand-shaped ruffled collar and delicate ceramic bow. Complete with a matching saucer and drainage hole. Each piece is thrown and altered by hand, meaning that each is slightly different, with its own arrangement of folds and details.
Lead time
4-6 weeks. Please get in touch should you have any urgent requirements and we will accommodate what we can.
Handcrafted in small batches, this charming rectangular cushion pairs a tailored Oxford trim with fabric by Jessica Osborne, whose work is recognised for its striking use of colour, playful geometry and refined simplicity.
Upholstered in the much-loved Monty fabric in Pink and Mustard, the design features a playful and joy-enhancing geometric pattern printed on 100% linen. Bold yet versatile, it works equally well as a stand out piece or layered alongside other fabrics within a scheme.
Balancing graphic modernity with a more timeless sensibility, it feels as at home in a contemporary townhouse as it does in a layered country interior.
Finished with a luxurious feather pad.
Handcrafted in leather and richly decorated with hand-tooled geometric detailing, the large box is a handsome and useful piece for the home.
Generously sized, it works beautifully on a desk, bedside table or dressing table. With its lid removed, it can also be used as an open storage box. Practical, characterful and an excellent gift.
Lead time
If this piece is not in stock, we’ll make one especially for you. Please allow approximately two weeks. Should you have any urgent requirements, get in touch and we will accommodate what we can.
