Chelsea Textiles
Chelsea Textiles was formed in 1990 to faithfully recreate antique textiles by hand, the originals of which are becoming vanishingly scarce. Over the past thirty years, Chelsea Textiles have not simply stayed rooted in their original mission, but have broadened their scope to include bedcovers, cushions and furniture. Similarly, they have extended their view of ‘antique’ to encompass vintage designs of the first half of the twentieth century, in both fabrics and furniture.
