Hi, I’m Bea and I’m the creative director of the woven textiles brand Beatrice Larkin. The studio specialises in luxury Jacquard woven fabrics for the interiors market, all sharing my signature hand drawn style and manufactured in the UK.
We currently produce two materials, super soft merino wool for throws, cushions and accessories like hot water bottles and scarves and recycled cotton for upholstery and soft furnishings.&nbsp;
We work closely with a mill in Lancashire, a finishers in Yorkshire and makers local to my studio in Margate.
We sell directly online, wholesale to shops and to interior designers selling fabric by the metre. We also collaborate with brands, most recently with the bedding company Piglet in Bed on an exclusive hot water bottle collection.
