The Story of Our First Product: A Love Affair With a Local Fabric

 


"

The Mayfair Collection was born from a deep love of unique fabrics and a passion for creating pieces that tell a story. In the early days, I would often find myself experimenting with making beds and accessories using end-of-roll fabrics, those special remnants that held the promise of something beautiful. It was a habit, a treasure hunt of sorts, where each find would inspire a new creation.

One day, I was walking past a charming local shop, the kind you rarely see anymore, filled with carefully curated fabrics. In the window, a vibrant roll of fabric caught my eye, a design so striking that I couldn’t resist. I walked past, turned back, and found myself returning several times, each visit reigniting the vision of a perfect dog bed that would stand out in any home.

Finally, I took the plunge. I bought not just one but two beautiful colours, a rich orange and a deep blue, each as captivating as the other. The shop owner shared that the fabrics were the last of their kind, sourced from an Italian factory that had since discontinued production. I knew then that these fabrics were special, the last of their lineage, and they were perfect for what I wanted to create. It felt like I was rescuing a piece of history, weaving it into something new and luxurious for our beloved pets.

This collection isn't just about aesthetics; it's about preserving craftsmanship, honouring the beauty of forgotten materials, and creating beds that are not just comfortable but truly one-of-a-kind.
