Our Inspiration
Great British nature offers such inspiration for gifts and homeware design. Offering a diverse range of colour and form that touch the soul. And that makes drawing them such a pleasure.
British Products
We invest in local and national suppliers not just to support but to limit our carbon footprint on nature. Sourced, made, finished – it’s all British to us!
Ethical Retailing
We also strive tirelessly for ethical working, sustainability and ethical good practise in our products and operations. We lay our reputation on quality, fair pricing and environmental resilience in all that we do.
More About Claire
I have been an artist, illustrator and bookbinder for over 30 years since graduating from Guildford College in 1983. My passion is to capture the beauty of the British natural world, chiefly insects, birds and now plants. I draw the originals in black ink, pencil and gouache for accuracy and an authentic feel. It’s about raising a smile and with so many people embracing nature again, I want to offer something that is a reminder of the natural world around them. Transferring those drawings onto glassware, ceramics, textiles, and paper is an absolute joy and the simplicity of the images hopefully speak for themselves.
"The mugs..arrived safely – I just wanted to reiterate the pleasure they give us daily."
