All about our Collaborations with makers, designers and friends.
About Jess Brown's -who made our Tiger Doll:
Jess has always been inspired by beautiful textiles. She began making dolls for her children 15 years ago using cashmere sweaters and antique remnants. She carefully developed a line of signature handmade ragdolls based on her original doll design. Each doll is cut to order in her Northern California studio and always made using the finest materials. Jess also collaborates with several designers, creating limited edition dolls for each season. Although originally created for children, the dolls have a simple sophistication that has moved them into the women & lifestyle markets as well.
The ragdolls and women’s collection are available in select shops worldwide. Jess lives in Petaluma, California with her children Stella and Tiger and her husband Erio.

South African Connections! Wallpaper and textiles.
In South Africa (where Im from) I still partner with Jane Solomon for her screen printed fabrics line "FabricNation." Fabricnation was established in 2007, but it has its roots in a bond forged two decades earlier when we (the designers, Jane Solomon and Jann Cheifitz) began designing and printing together in a garage.
Jane and Jann are inspired by the African textile tradition, rendered in a modern urban context with its blending of diverse sources and influences.
This collection showcases an interpretation of selected Fabricnation textile designs. Color and scale has been adapted to create fresh wallpapers.
For the wallpapers, international shipping is available. You can see the leopards wallpaper here.
