Studio Candice Lau Leather bags

Marrying the contemporary with traditional, Candice joins her love for design and a passion for working with traditional methods of leatherwork to create her collection of leather bags & accessories. Influenced by observations of people in the cities in which she has lived, from Amsterdam, Hong Kong to London. Candice’s collection offers that subtle dynamism through strong and contrasting colours, but yet in amongst the small drama of the colourful collection is elegance, design and staying true to her craft of leatherwork so that each bag remains to be individually handcrafted using Italian leathers and British Millerain canvas in her London workshop.

Jane Keith Hand printed scarves

Jane lives and works in Balmerino, a small coastal hamlet on the North Fife coast of Scotland.

Both collections are made from a special blend of 75% superfine Lambswool and 25% Angora, these scarves provide exceptional warmth without feeling too heavy. Finished with purled fringes, the ultra-fine fibres create a beautiful soft handle, with the Angora offering a unique surface texture.

'Colour Block' scarves are hand printed and and individually composed compositionally on one side of the scarf. The scarves are designed so when loosely wrapped around the neck the blocks of colour contrast with one another. They can be tied and shaped to suit every occassion.

'Ribbon' collection are composed individually and customised with an intricate selection of ribbons. Placed on the diagonal, when the scarf is draped or loosely knotted, you get a little glimour of the beautiful ribbons, each end has its own composition happening.

Each scarf is hand printed by Jane Keith and is unique.
