We use solely natural fibres in our scarves, throws and cushions. These are a renewable resource and do not release micro plastics into the environment.
We work exclusively with established yarn suppliers who uphold high animal and environmental welfare standards across all wool and fibre types. While our Merino Lambswool is Woolmark Certified, and explicitly non-mulesed, we ensure that our suppliers for other animal fibres also adhere to strict ethical guidelines. Our Shetland Wool is certified by the RWS (Responsible Wool Standard). Our Silk and Cotton suppliers are both individually OEKO-TEX certified.
We actively engage with our suppliers to verify their practices and prioritise those who demonstrate their commitment to animal and environmental welfare through recognised audits or independent assessments.

Weaving & washing
Wallace Sewell works closely with Mitchell Interflex at County Brook Mill, which is located on the historic border between Lancashire and Yorkshire.
Adrian and Lance are the mill owners; the 4th generation of a family of weavers. Great grandfather William took over the mill in 1907 and it has been run by the Mitchell family ever since. Their father Raymond was even born in a cottage attached to the mill!
Once the fabric is woven it is transported to Huddersfield where it is washed to create a super soft and luxurious finish.
Then it is sent back to Mitchell Interflex where our Production Manager, Andrea and her team, hand cut each product, quality check for imperfections, then label and package them ready to be dispatched to our customers.
