Welcome to Textiles LiveThe Sustainable,
Affordable Luxury of
Artisan Designed
Hand Craft
Rethinking LuxuryLuxury as we have known it excludes.But luxury also brings comfort,
satisfaction and well-being.As human connection becomes a luxury,
craft created by an individual, instilled with
inspiration, style and the intimacy of touch
can be an inclusive, affordable luxury.Can we think of not being in a hurry,
of sharing artisans' criteria for quality?Can we think of exchange that is not
purely economic, and of
Artisan Designers and clients
knowing each other?
Meeting Artisan DesignersOnline or in their studios,
is a fulfilling experience.We hope that
Artisan Designed
handcraft can encouragea trend toward a more
mindful & enriched
life & remind usof the importance of
beauty & joy.
"I realize that it was for her children's sake
that my mother pinned up her hair
so carefully every morning.
In turn... I put on something pretty...
when I am staying in a house
where there are children."
~ Margaret Mead, Blackberry Winter
