    MEMBER OF THE MONTH:

    TRADESCANT & SON

    Tradescant & Son is an exciting and innovative new design studio in the heart of the Ribble Valley. Their debut collection, ‘The Curator’ is comprised of dramatic and luxurious printed linens and co ordinating wallpapers. This has been joined by another mini collection “The Botanist” which is a further extension of this extraordinary “drama”! Their often quirky and exclusive designs take inspiration from the works of John Tradescant, the 17th Century Gardener and Collector.

    Their designs are all hand drawn with intricate detailing, then meticulously coloured to create a stunning pattern. They then digitally print them onto beautiful 100% linen, ultimately showing nature in all its glory! All fabric is woven to their specification and all of the printing is carried out by the finest weavers and printers in England.
