This Autumn Winter, Birdie Fortescue invites you to embark on a design journey along The Silk Road. Inspired by her travels across Asia and her love of heritage crafts, the collection is a tapestry of influences - echoing the intricate patterns of Uzbekistan and the rich artisanal heritage of India, the collection is designed to be effortlessly layered, inviting personal expression through the art of mixing and matching.
The Silk Road
Soft furnishings in this collection are all about layering pattern, colour, and warmth. From striped wool throws with playful ricrac trims to quilted bedspreads and hand-embroidered cushions inspired by Uzbek artistry, each piece adds richness and versatility - perfect for creating inviting, lived-in looks.
No, all of our cushions come with a bespoke feather filled pad included as standard - we don't charge any extra for this!
Choosing the right rug size comes down to personal preference and whether you need an area rug or a larger floor covering. As a general guideline, bigger often works better - a rug that’s too small can make a room feel cramped. Before purchasing, measure your area carefully and consider the rug’s placement. If your room has furniture, aim for the rug to sit under the legs with some rug visible around them. A larger rug can anchor your furniture, enhance the room, and give the room a finished, cohesive look.
Our bedspreads are generously sized and designed to be extra long, allowing them to be tucked under the pillows and then folded over for a polished look. As shown in our styled images, this is our preferred styling method, creating a clean, neat finish that beautifully completes any bedroom scheme.
