  Stories woven in Wood, Wool, Wax, and Wares.

Handcrafted Premium Gifts and Bespoke Homeware in Plymouth, Devon

 

Every collection begins with a story, a memory, a place, a feeling waiting to be captured in our handcrafted creations. From the texture of wood to the softness of wool and the gentle glow of wax, each piece is more than an object; it's a journey, an invitation to pause, reflect, and connect with the simple beauty of life.

 

Our Countryside Collection, for example, evokes the serenity of open fields, the rustic charm of sunlit meadows and quiet moments, inviting you to explore, collect 

and connect.

 

Our Wears Collection takes our storytelling on a journey of a lifetime. Infused with the designer's Italian heritage and a lifelong love for high-end textile artistry, this range transforms our original, vibrant surface patterns into wearable and liveable luxury. Rejecting synthetic materials, we print exclusively onto premium, 100% natural fibres like cotton, alongside Nappa leather, bringing a bold elegance to our artisanal world.

 

Guided by creativity, skill, and sustainability, we pour our heart and care into every detail. Thoughtfully made and uniquely yours, our collections are stories waiting to become part of your world, crafted to inspire,  to cherish and to share.

 

 

 Inspired by Places, Crafted by Hand

 

 

Every journey leaves its mark.

Inspired by travels across the UK and beyond, our passion for handmade creations has shaped Bord Du Lac Artisans.

Each piece is a small world waiting to be discovered.

 Wood Creations

Within our woodwork lies a quiet dialogue between nature, memory, and craft.  It begins with a story held inside the wood itself: the rings of time, the subtle shifts in colour, the promise of form waiting to be revealed. 

Richard brings these stories to light: every curve, every shadow, every fine line is carved with intention - an invitation to pause, trace the texture, and feel the quiet strength of the material.

Our wood creations blend British heritage with Italian warmth through a shared philosophy: craft with heart, create with purpose, and allow each object to carry its own voice. Timeless yet personal, each piece is shaped to become part of your world - a celebration of nature, artistry, and the stories we choose to keep.

Adventures in Wool

Within our wool-work rests a quiet softness -the kind that wraps warmth around a moment. Each piece begins with fibres chosen not only for quality, but for the way they feel in the hand and live in the home: supple wool, smooth cotton, recycled yarns, and our gentle bio-nylon, each carrying its own whisper of comfort.

 

 

Through slow, careful knitting in a calm, steady rhythm, Sabrina shapes these threads into blankets, scarves, cushions, and rugs that invite touch and soften the spaces they enter. Every loop holds intention; the double-stranded knit gives it reassuring weight, texture, and durability.

 

Each piece invites you to pause, breathe and feel its comforting warmth. Explore our handcrafted wool creations that are made to be touched, treasured and lived with, crafted with care, designed for life.

   Sustainable Materials

At the heart of Bord Du Lac Artisans lies a commitment to sustainability and eco-conscious craftsmanship.

We carefully select materials that exude quality and style and honour our planet. Our wood range features responsibly sourced bamboo, oak, pine, beech, acacia, birch, teak, and maple, each bringing its natural elegance and durability.

 

 

Complementing these are our handpicked fibres like wool and our innovative bio-nylon—a biodegradable alternative that mimics the luxurious feel of Merino while reducing environmental impact.

Our natural waxes, derived from soy and coconut, are chosen for their clean-burning properties and renewable origins, perfectly aligning with our ethos of wellness and sustainability. 

 

Every detail of our packaging reflects this commitment: we use eco-friendly glassine paper and recyclable plastics, and opt for cardboard, brown paper and twine, - or our signature Japanese-inspired Furoshiki fabric wraps - ensuring that even our presentation minimises waste and supports recycling. By integrating these sustainable practices and materials into our work, we strive to create products that are not only beautiful and high-performing but also kind to the environment. Join us in embracing a future where style and sustainability walk hand in hand.
