Commissions Commissions
I do undertake commissions for any specialist items, including items which are not currently in stock within the shop, but may be shown in my gallery.

PricesAll items are made to order and prices will depend upon complexity, materials, and timescales.

Hand worked buttons start from as little as £2.30 each, whilst silk woven ribbons start from £27.00 per metre.

Quantity discounts are available for some items (such as buttons), and trade discounts can be available for bona fide costumiers, designers, etc.

Unsure of what you need?

Where possible, I'm happy to advise as to the suitability of an item for your needs. I can work with you to design trimming; using paintings or engravings as source material, or simply designing something completely different. You may however know just what you want - a copy of an extant item, in materials which best match the original.

Why so expensive?

The items I make are each hand crafted, using traditional techniques and quality materials. Many of the items cannot be found in today's mass-market economy, simply due to the time each technique takes. Often, I need to research to find the correct method of creating the object you wish, or I may need to source specialist materials created simply for your item. All of these factors contribute to the cost, and to the creation of a piece of textile art.

I do however, realise that often budgets are a very large factor. Wherever possible, I do try to include alternatives when quoting, such as a brocade weave using a gilt or a high content gold thread, allowing you a choice to suit your budget.

Ordering & Payment

In the first instance, please contact me, outlining what it is you are looking for. Try to include as much information as you can (including any deadlines you may have), as this will enable me to give you a better idea of costs from the outset. After discussion, I will then be able to provide you with a quotation, timescale, and deposit structure. (I usually require 50% prior to commencement of work).

I accept payment in UK pounds sterling only, and payment can be made by PayPal or by a cheque drawn on a UK bank.
