Laura Ashley Bow Tie - Roullier White
                                  This particular tie was made out of a Laura Ashley fabric

Emma has always been a fan of the "English Gentleman" look, and this image was the main source of inspiration for creating her company. Her ethos is to make each customer feel special and unique whilst brining back the well dressed gent. Each of her bow ties come packaged in a sophisticated box complete with ribbon and a personalised, hand-written message from Emma herself as a "thank you".


Emma has always had a keen interest in design, and her passion for menswear enabled her to take a natural step into the realm of accessory design in order to enhance this passion. All of her products are created from scratch by Emma herself by using her beloved sewing machine in her home studio in Wiltshire.

The Holy Trinity: Perfumes Made by Monks

The rarefied aura that surrounds fragrance dates back to the remotest times of antiquity, when incense and fragrant oils would be offered up to the gods and deities of the ancient world. The Arab world is credited with introducing modern perfumery to the West, having preserved the ancient arts of distillation, evaporation, and filtration that had been lost to Christian society, and in turn heralding great advancements not only in the field of fragrance but of chemistry and science too. In passing this tradition on, Christian monks began to adopt the practice of creating fragrances as an expression of faith, before eventually the art form became available to the wider public, for a price.

The problem here is that bread knives are very long and with their serrated edges they are not the easiest of things to carry around. Charles wondered why a folding bread knife could not be produced and took his idea for a pocket bread knife to Lamson & Goodnow, American manufacturers of the LamsonSharp range.

The French word bâtard – and yes it does translate how you think it does – is a shorter and thicker type of baguette.
