ao for gainsborough

ao textiles is delighted to be associated with royal warrant holders, Gainsborough silk weavers in suffolk.

Together with Gainsborough we have worked to produce a range of stunning, luxurious and sustainable fabrics. The environmental impact of every stage of the design process is thoroughly analysed and adjusted.

To ensure the best possible outcome for the final production we consider waste reduction, energy efficiency and recycling. We assure transparency in our aim to produce an ecological solution. These groundbreaking fabrics are woven on a recycled silk warp using either naturally dyed or recycled weft. Local links enable us to use locally sourced dyes such as woad.

Each fabric tells a different story.
