Tuppence Collective

About

Original botanical patterns that combine the essence of classic design with a modern aesthetic.

Drawing inspiration from the Arts and Crafts movement and beautifully layered maximalist interiors, we create hand-painted patterns that celebrate colour, nature and heritage while feeling fresh for contemporary homes. Every design begins as original artwork, carefully painted by hand before being thoughtfully developed into keepsakes that are made to be treasured for years to come.

Our work has always been rooted in the belief that everyday objects can be both beautiful and meaningful. Whether it's a personalised Christmas stocking or a piece of stationery, we want every item we create to become part of someone's story—used, loved and returned to year after year.

We've had the privilege of creating designs for brands and retailers including IKEA, Fortnum & Mason and Sandringham, with our work also featured in publications such as Vogue, House & Garden, Tatler, The Observer, Financial Times, Stylist Magazine, and Collagerie. While we're incredibly proud of these collaborations, our greatest joy comes from creating directly for individuals and families through our Etsy shop, where every order has a personal story behind it.

We believe true luxury is found in thoughtful design, exceptional materials and careful craftsmanship rather than excess. That's why we choose rich fabrics, timeless colour palettes and beautifully considered finishes that allow our illustrations to shine while ensuring each piece is made to last. We don't follow fast-moving trends; instead, we create enduring designs that feel as relevant in years to come as they do today.

Sustainability is equally important to us. Every product is made in the UK using responsibly sourced materials wherever possible, including GOTS-certified fabrics, vegetable-based inks and recyclable paper and packaging. We believe creating responsibly isn't an optional extra—it's a responsibility. By designing pieces that are made to last, rather than to be replaced, we hope to encourage a slower, more considered approach to gifting and decorating.

As a small independent business, every order is handled with genuine care. Rebecca carefully prepares and packages our stationery from her studio in Bath, while Alicia lovingly hand-stitches our bespoke fabric pieces from her studio in Margate. Keeping our production close to home allows us to maintain the quality, attention to detail and personal touch that are so important to us.

The most rewarding part of our work is knowing our designs become woven into people's lives. We love hearing from customers whose personalised stockings are unpacked every December, whose children delight in seeing their names embroidered for the first time, or who choose our keepsakes to celebrate a baby's first Christmas, a new home or another meaningful milestone. These stories remind us that what we're creating is about far more than a product—it's about helping families create traditions and memories that endure.
