ELVIS & KRESSE
At our store, we are thrilled to feature the extraordinary creations of Elvis & Kresse, a true model of innovative entrepreneurship. Since 2005, they have been repurposing London's decommissioned fire hoses and various materials into beautiful bags, belts, and purses. These expertly crafted items not only delight the eye but also give—50% of the profits from the Fire Hose range go to the Firefighters’ Charity, while the Fire&Hide range supports Barefoot College International’s Solar Mamas initiative. By selecting from our E&K collection, you are not just making a purchase; you are investing in a sustainable future and uplifting communities. Elvis & Kresse: Sustainable Luxury Designer Accessories

PALAVA
When we first saw the Palava collection of dresses and knitwear we wanted to buy everything! We were enchanted!
Here’s what Palava say about their company:
“Behind the colourful prints and joyful spirit of Palava lies a passion for sustainable manufacturing and we’ve been making conscious, mindful choices about our fabrics and production processes for many moons… working in an industry that is notoriously damaging to the environment, we are constantly learning (and re-learning!) about best practises.”
We stock a selection of Palava cardigans in the full size range – come in and try one on!
COULON DESIGN
We are delighted to showcase the work of our young friend Rosy Coulon. Rosy has a background in textiles and interior design and we have a selection of her fine cushion covers and a beautiful wall hanging in our shop – come in and see!
BEHAVIOR CHANGE CORNWALL
“Transforming lost fishing nets and ocean plastic recovered from Cornwall’s coast.”
We are so proud to stock bracelets and necklaces from our young friends Behavior Change Cornwall (BCC) who are based up-country in Looe!
They are on a mission to remove harmful fishing net that has been ‘abandoned’ in the sea around our coasts and transform them into bracelets and beads. Each piece comes with a card of authenticity telling you where the net was found and who recovered it from the sea.
When you buy a BCC bracelet or necklace you are buying a memento of the area and also supporting a programme of environmental education. Be part of this movement for positive change!
WATERHAUL
Here on the Cornish Riviera sunglasses are essential for eye health as well as for looking super cool!
Our friends Waterhaul are based in Newquay and make a range of sunglasses where the frames are made entirely from recycled ghost fishing gear. The frames have a lifelong warranty and you can read all about them on the Waterhaul website.
Do come in and try a pair. Each pair comes with a fold-up cork case. What’s not to like!
