Kindred News

We present our Autumn/Winter 2020 collection to you.

Folklore is our inaugural Kindred of Ireland collection, and for it, we wanted to celebrate ancient techniques and traditions unique to Ireland. The collection features new elements of quilting, hand pleating and beetled linen - A labour intensive process whereby the linen is dampened and pounded with wooden blocks for hours to achieve a sheen and crisp like texture. As you can see, this gives the linen unexpected structure.

Each piece is designed to be something you will treasure forever and keep as an heirloom. We hope you love it.
