Focusing on the often forgotten and overlooked, inspiration is taken from the collections of found objects and travel ephemera of husband and wife team Rachael Rowe & Steve Jones, to create handmade, quality products to enhance your life and your home.
I love our map cushions, they are so striking and such a talking point - we love it when customers find their house on the map! I love creating something that people feel such a connection to - many of them end up on the other side of the world, sent from loved ones as a memento of home!

We live and work on the edge of Dartmoor in Devon in a very creative town, so we are constantly inspired by the landscape and the creative people we are surrounded by. So much so that we have just introduced a new fragrance to our candle and soap ranges, Emsworthy, which was inspired by the sea of bluebells that can be enjoyed at Emsworthy Mire on the moor every springtime.
First and foremost, we only make useful products, we want the things we make and sell to fulfil a purpose, and not end up in landfill, so if an idea doesn't meet that criteria, we won't make it. We hope our items will be treasured for many years to come! All our products are made in the UK, either by us or by one of our trusted manufacturers, our fabric is digitally printed in the UK, which uses for less water than screen printing and also means we can just print what we need. We use recyclable packaging for every product, and all our postal packaging is fully recyclable too.
