The Artist
Clare is first and foremost an artist, internationally renowned for creating pieces based on rural heritage, with an appreciation for British wildlife. Drawing her inspiration from her rural upbringing and passion for the outdoors.
But there is another driving force behind this unique brand: Recovery.
Overcoming addiction has given Clare a new perspective on life, inspiring her to create designs that are full of joy and optimism.
"Every piece of artwork I create is a reflection of my journey to sobriety, with each piece representing a step towards a brighter future." - Clare Haggas
Her story is a powerful example of how resilience, determination, and creativity can help us overcome even the most difficult challenges, and has inspired many others to seek help and begin their own path to a new life.
"Without my sobriety I am nothing."
The Creative Process
Each accessory begins as vivid and detailed artwork, lovingly developed over time. Clare adores using watercolour pencils and acrylic paint to compose her paintings, bringing a sense of adventure played out against a backdrop of the glorious British great outdoors.
Clare's original paintings are then digitally scanned, with adjustments made to variations in colour, contrast, and brightness:
Proudly British Made Scarves
Once each stunning design is finalised, it's then transferred onto the highest quality silks, hand-finished with hems rolled by a team of artisans in England.
Entirely Designed and Made in England: rich country heritage is at the heart of this brand, with a promise of immaculate craftsmanship, innovation and undisputed reliability, in all of our British silk scarves.
But the story doesn't end there...
Authentically British, from Conception to Manufacture
From each painting, every vibrant design, to the experience of unwrapping your new treasured accessory; Clare seeks to create a world in which we can lose ourselves, imprinting her own character which is intrinsically bound up in each and every piece.
