Freya is 5'7", UK 8, wears XS

Candlelight is a Donegal tweed with little shimmers woven through it, like the flicker of candles. Across its cream, textured ground, small sparks of light appear as the cloth moves.

The cloth is woven in Ardara, drawing on six generations of family weaving in Donegal.

We have given it a new silhouette in the Inheritance Coat: a neat stand collar, a tailored waist and a long line, finished inside with Irish linen. It buttons at the top and falls open below the waist, with pockets and room for a thin jumper beneath its fitted shape. It has something of the coat handed down with care, still lovely after years of wearing.

Wear it over the Twinkle Tweed Puff Shorts for the party season, or over everything you own on the coldest Sundays of the year. A coat to wear often, grow fond of and, one day, pass on.

Shop Kept for Good

Donegal tweed.
Woven in Ardara.

Woven on the Atlantic edge of Ireland, by a family who have done it for six generations. The yarn is spun and dyed close to the loom, and the colours come from what surrounds it: the sea, the hills, the changing sky.

Here, a cream ground with small sparks of light woven through it, like the flicker of candles. They show most as the cloth moves.

One pair of hands,
start to finish.

Every piece is cut and sewn in Belfast by one of our sewists, who sees it through from the first cut to the last stitch.

We keep our making close to home on purpose. Belfast was once the linen capital of the world, and the skills that built it are rare now. Making here is how we keep them alive.
