Tactile surfaces
Elizabeth is inspired by the history and traditional forms of handmade Passementerie. She draws from her extensive research to create fluid designs that are rich in pattern, form,colour and repetition. Cords and braids are intricately woven by hand to create detailed and striking surfaces rich in texture, surface and tactility.

Bespoke luxury
Inspiration is drawn from sources as diverse as Tudor paintings, ceremonial military dress and outsider art. All of Elizabeth’s work is handmade to order and she works closely with clients to create individual and bespoke pieces. |

Contemporary colour
Vibrant, energetic and confident colour combinations are at the heart of Elizabeth’s work. She uses a broad range of colour palettes and frequently dyes her own yarns to produce a distinctive and exact colour

Collaboration
Collaboration is an important part of Elizabeth’s practice. Most recently she has collaborated with embroiderer Abigail Barnes to create an exquisite and luxurious collection of hand made textiles.
