Our name Couper -et- Coudre comes from the French verbs meaning 'to cut' & 'to sew' and gives a nod to our handcrafted philosophy. A desire to work in a sustainable way and create items that are well made and will stand the test of time.
With a belief that our environment has the power shift our mood and when created mindfully can increase feelings of well-being, we believe in surrounding ourselves with pieces we love and that 'beautiful objects with a purpose' can elevate our everyday. The most cherished things we own all have a good story and great craftsmanship behind them.
Every product is handmade to order which minimises excess and waste. We work this way so every design is made just for you and arrives straight from the makers hands to yours <3
