A rare Lewis Jones narrow loom Welsh blanket from the 19th century.

Early Mills couldn’t produce wide blankets (hence the name narrow loom) so two blankets were created and stitched together to create one bigger blanket, as seen here.

Excellent true Welsh colours, still as vivid as ever.

A huge, beautiful and carefully crafted Aesthetic movement chest of drawers from London makers Maple & Co.

Maple & Co. were one of the great names in British furniture and interior decoration, with a history stretching back to 1841. The firm grew from a London furnishing business into a vast operation incorporating cabinet-making, upholstery, timber importing and interior decoration, with showrooms and workshops on Tottenham Court Road.

Their prestigious commissions included the furnishing of White Lodge in Richmond Park in 1870, which was then the home of Francis, Prince of Teck and Princess Mary Adelaide.

Today, our own shop is just a short distance from Richmond Park, making this connection particularly fitting — a piece made by the same celebrated London firm that furnished one of the Park’s most important historic residences.

This detail is even more special as our shop was originally a chemist. Queen Victoria used to stop at Mortlake Station (opposite our shop) and was then transported to Richmond Park by horse and carriage. Her porters using the mirror on the outside of our shop to adjust their suits. The whole shops original internal contents are now housed inside one of the lodges in Richmond Park.

As with most of London there is a fascinating story around every corner!

Beautifully restrained & oh so perfectly designed. If you had to ask us why we love the arts & crafts period so much this sort of piece plays a very good role of how we’d sum it up. In our opinion, one of the most beautiful settles we’ve ever seen, never mind owned.
