TUDI create home goods of timeless design and highest quality. Keeping in mind the environment, they make products for your home that last years. TUDI’s cast iron products are a purchase for generations. They don’t require replacement every few years like cookware made from alternative materials. Thanks to their resistance to high temperatures, they are not prone to deformation. They coat their cast iron with the highest quality enamel, composed solely of safe ingredients, ensuring longevity. The weight of cast iron cookware makes them very stable, difficult to knock over or drop. Cast iron cookware is nearly indestructible!

For Wellness Enthusiasts: Wilder Botanics

Wilder Botanics is inspired by co-founder Rachel Landon’s 20 years of clinical practice as a naturopath and herbalist and her husband Charlie’s deep-rooted curiosity and love of naturally derived formulations.

Their products are created from 100% natural, organic and careful wild crafted herbal ingredients.

Shower Essentials: HOTEL, MIKE

Biotechnology allows Hotel, Mike to recreate powerful natural ingredients without negatively impacting our planet and oceans.

These products are the perfect gift to anyone who would appreciate some simply good quality shower essentials for holidays.

For The Outdoorsy One: Billy Tannery

In 2016, building on centuries of local leather knowledge Billy Tannery transformed a farm building in the Midlands into their own small-batch tannery – the first of its kind to be built in this country for well over 50 years. Today their collection of handmade leather goods puts their vegetable tanned goat and deer leather centre stage. At Billy Tannery, they produce leather as it should be. Tanned entirely in Britain from a previously wasted food by-product, using bark extracts and their innovative microtannery process that recycles 90% of the water and turns waste into compost.

Our Top Picks:

The Ziptop Backpack – A leather zip top backpack, a smaller, lighter-weight version of their signature Roll Top bag. Handmade in Somerset from their exceptional bark tanned goat leather.

The Journal – An A5 leather bound notebook journal with refillable pages made from recycled leather fibres. Handmade in Leicestershire from sustainable goat leather produced in their small-batch tannery.
