WORKING FROM AN OLD WHEELWRIGHT’S SHOP, ON A TUCKED AWAY ESTATE IN SUFFOLK. MABEL & CO IS A DESIGNER MAKER STUDIO FOCUSED ON SUSTAINABILITY AND TRADITIONAL CRAFT
PRACTICES. IN ADDITION TO OUR MAIN WORKSPACE, WE HAVE A SHOP AND LETTERPRESS STUDIO ON THE COAST IN THORPENESS, SUFFOLK WHERE VISITORS ARE WELCOME TO COME ALONG TO WATCH THE PRINTING PRESS, HEAR ABOUT THE ETHOS AND DESIGN
INSPIRATIONS WE DRAW FROM AND SEE THE ITEMS WE PRODUCE. MABEL & CO WAS BORN FROM A DEEP ROOTED CONCERN ABOUT THE SOCIAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS OF MODERN MANUFACTURING, FARMING AND CONSUMER CYCLE AND A BELIEF THAT WITH ITS EMPHASIS ON LOCAL & NATURAL MATERIALS, HAND-CRAFTED QUALITY AND LONGEVITY OF AESTHETICS THE CONCEPT AND PRACTICE OF CRAFT IS A VIABLE,
IF ONLY PARTIAL, RESPONSE.
