The Lyde Garden
The Lyde Garden is inspired by the wilderness of an unique valley garden that traces the gently flowing Lyde River in Buckinghamshire.
To enter the Lyde Garden we step down meandering paths through dense, unmanicured planting. A soaring tree canopy shelters our intimate encounter with the sounds of flowing water and views of lush foliage.
The Lyde Garden collection is handwoven from paper, linen and nettle yarns. It is sustainable, plant-based and vegan; mindfully made in Buckinghamshire.
