In today's world it seems material possessions are becoming increasingly disposable. Many purchases satisfy instant gratification forgetting the negative impact they are having on the environment and our health.
Rock the Home is about offering quality British made homewares that not only look good but are are of the finest quality & made to last. Fine British goods, not imported, which also helps the British economy and saves on some of the environmental impact transportation from overseas creates.
Beautiful upcycled furniture - solid pieces crafted many years ago, brought up to date and made into statement pieces.
Hand decorated fine English bone china mugs and teapots that are both dishwasher and microwave safe and so good for today’s busy lifestyle.
Teatowels made with ethically sourced cotton that are highly absorbent, hemmed by machinists and that will become your favourite tea towel.
In essence, homewares to be proud of.
Our luxury white teatowels are made using 100% ethically sourced half Panama cotton, a strong fabric also used for curtains and seat cushions, are craft printed in the UK using eco-friendly water based inks mixed by hand and have been hemmed on all four sides by machinists. A quality hand finished tea towel made to last and so reduce waste. A tea towel that is extremely absorbent and won't be simply 'moving the water around the plate'!
Each piece of fine English (English!) bone china is hand decorated in England before being fired.
Each piece of upcycled furniture has been hand and machine sanded, then waxed, painted or restored respecting the environment. No chemical strippers are used to remove existing lacquer and paint, it isn't dipped either. The knobs and handles if retained are cleaned with natural products including vinegar and the paint used is environmentally friendly, the waxes made mostly of naturally derived ingredients, so leaving an environmentally friendly finish.
As the fine English bone china mugs and teapots are hand decorated (in England supporting British industry) each piece is unique and rarely the same design. The British made teatowels have been hemmed by machinists.
The bespoke upcycled furniture (some bought from charity, some from other sources) upcycled by Condover Furniture is individual, one off; no two pieces the same. Individual to the purchaser. Not mass produced.
Furniture from the past was well made, finished by hand often with dovetail joints and is far more solid than much of the furniture made in factories. Well made furniture will survive more than one house move. Furniture with a past and helping all our futures!
