Our new fabric collection in a colour palette that perfectly coordinates with our hand embroideries. Chelsea Textiles was formed in 1990 to faithfully recreate antique textiles by hand, the originals of which are becoming vanishingly scarce. Over the past thirty years, Chelsea Textiles have not simply stayed rooted in their original mission, but have broadened their scope to include bedcovers, cushions and furniture.
Similarly, they have extended their view of 'antique' to encompass vintage designs of the first half of the twentieth century, in both fabrics and furniture. The company prides itself on using only authentic materials, hand-worked by master craftsmen into unique pieces which will stand the test of time, to become the antiques for future generations.

About
Report
Chelsea Textiles is a family firm, started in 1990 by Mona Perlhagen, who moved to London from New York, where she had been a fashion buyer for Bloomingdale's.
She identified a need for perfect recreations of antique embroidered fabrics and cushions, to complement traditional interiors, and set about researching and sourcing authentic materials and the world's finest craftsmen, to produce hand-embroidered fabrics of the same quality as those of the 17th and 18th centuries.Since that time, the company's design ethos has evolved to encompass the early 20th century.
