South West Roots, 100% Made in the UK

We use the wool from our own Devon Closewool and Herdwick sheep to create luxury furnishings for your home.

Our products are born in the Devon and crafted with care across Britain's finest traditional workshops before reaching your home. This approach allows us to personally know everyone who contributes to each item, ensuring premium quality at every step while supporting British craftsmanship.

Our journey begins on our sheep farm near Salcombe, Devon, where our sheep are bred, reared, and sheared. The wool then travels to Yorkshire's historic mills, where generations of expertise transform it into premium yarn using traditional methods. Our signature rugs are woven in Bristol by master craftspeople, with our special herringbone collection created in Scotland's renowned weaving communities.

By keeping all production within Britain, we preserve traditional skills while ensuring the value created enriches our national heritage and communities.

Supporting Native Breeds

Our Devon Closewool and Herdwick sheep represent living agricultural heritage. By raising these traditional British breeds, we support agricultural biodiversity while working with animals naturally suited to our local landscape. The distinctive characteristics of their wool—from the Devon Closewool's bright cream to the Herdwick's range of natural greys—tell the story of centuries of adaptation.

Respectful Animal Husbandry

Our sheep receive individual care and attention. Our small scale farming practices ensure each animal benefits from proper nutrition and considerate treatment throughout their lives. This careful approach shows in the quality of their wool and reflects our belief that ethical treatment creates superior materials.

Connecting Past with Present

Our methods remain traditional, yet our designs feel current. By combining established techniques with contemporary aesthetics, we create pieces that honour Devon's textile heritage while fitting comfortably into modern homes. This connection between past and present reminds us that good design and ethical production remain always relevant.

At Farmer & Weaver, we believe these principles create beautiful and meaningful products with stories you can feel proud to bring into your home.
