I’ve always love British landmarks and, when I couldn’t find any high-quality souvenirs to buy for a friend of mine, I decided to create my own. The first product I created was my Flying Angel tea towel, which celebrates the Angel of the North. Having moved to Newcastle the same year the angel was built (1998), it felt fitting for me to begin with that particular landmark. This item was so popular that I created a whole Newcastle collection, adding the iconic Tyne Bridge, The Sage in Gateshead, The Baltic Flour Mill and the Millennium Bridge to my distinctive range of designs. I searched the country for manufacturers who shared the same ideals as me and found a handful who I still use to this day. All of our products are designed in Britain, using only the highest quality materials.
