Milford
I’m so pleased to introduce The Milford Collection — a celebration of classic British craftsmanship and design. Each piece has been lovingly handmade in Nottingham using a rich crimson, deep red version of William Morris’s iconic “Strawberry Thief” print — one of the most beloved patterns in the history of English textile art. Its intricate detail and timeless charm capture everything I adore about heritage design: beauty, storytelling, and craftsmanship woven together.
The deep red tones bring a sense of warmth and sophistication, perfect for the cooler months and festive occasions alike. From self-tie and pre-tied bow ties to classic neckties, pocket squares, cufflinks, and children’s bow ties, every piece in the Milford Collection carries the spirit of William Morris’s artistry — reimagined through the careful hands of our Nottingham studio.
