Questions
Can I commission a unique style?

Yes. The process will take longer as there are the extra stages of design consultation and design time needed which is why the price is different. This option is much more fluid than choosing from the range or tweaking an already existing design but it is an exciting way of creating a special piece that would be unique.

How long does the process take?

The process is dependent on many things, availability of clients time for consultations and fittings and the weight of work in progress but usually 6-8 weeks allows for the work necessary when creating a unique product.

Will you make a copy of an existing item?

No. I am a designer with a specific look and copying in the design world is an ethical issue. However if there is information to be gained from a favourite piece which goes on to inform a unique design, for example a collar shape, proportions, sleeve particulars like a raglan as opposed to a set in sleeve etc, this can be helpful to hone the design.

Why do you choose British wool?

Britain has the most wonderful history of cloth manufacturing, such skilled weavers and the choice is exceptional. Different weights of cloth, different patterns within the weave, beautiful colours and high quality that is consistent and a signature of their craft. Also it keeps the miles travelled to a minimum, which is an added bonus.
