Adam Curtis Online (UK)
Adam Curtis Online showcases a special selection of textile products that have been designed, developed and produced within the UK by either ourselves or top UK designers. Although we prefer working with British Wool and supporting the British wool industry, other wools and fibres are sometimes used, more often than not to create something truly unique. We believe in only using the very best materials for the job and never use cheap fibre or questionable sources in our products. Country of origin is always clearly stated in item descriptions.

Angus Ross
We source our oak from an ancient woodland that we also manage, a few miles downstream from our workshop, on the banks of the River Tay. Our cool damp weather grows strong warm dark honey coloured timber full of wonderful character. The species is Quercus robur – the native oak of the UK. Be aware that ‘oak’ is a loose term like ‘beef’ and most ‘oak’ furniture available in the UK is not our native species.

Bee Palace (UK)
Solitary bees don’t swarm, sting or make honey so they don’t need any maintenance, just places to nest. While it can Itake up to 20,000 honey bees to pollinate an acre of apple orchard, it can take only 250 solitary bees. Made entirely in England by an artisan potter in Stoke-on-Trent, the beepalace is slip-cast in small batches and hand glazed. It is designed to be a focal point in a garden and to look attractive on its own or in group – just hang it on a wall or fence. Remember, solitary bees are docile and will nest close to humans. They very rarely use their weak sting and do not swarm. The nesting tubes inside the beepalace are made of cardboard and replicate the type of nesting places solitary bees seek out in nature.
