A former royal palace based on geometrical Renaissance plans, Hampton Court was appropriated by Henry VIII from Cardinal Woolsey. Anne Boleyn was watching a game of tennis at Hampton Court at the time of her arrest and Henry was playing tennis when news was brought to him of her execution.

The economic foundation of the town of Newbury was the cloth trade. The famous “Newbury Coat” was the result of a wager as to whether a gentleman's suit could be produced in one day from wool that was sheared from a sheep's back at the beginning of day. Our hand-tufted collection pays tribute to the art of William Morris and the Arts & Crafts design school updated with today’s color palette of chocolate, blue and green.
Entirely handmade in the Rajastan region of India, the designs of Newcastle reflect the dry climate and bright colors of this ageless realm, rich in the look and feel of centuries past. A particular inspiration for this stunning collection is the city of Jaipur, with its many ancient forts, which has provided the vision for this selection of truly ageless motifs--any one of which can transform a home into a castle.
