Jo Howat and Sallyanne Hutchinson share a lifelong love of beautiful things. They became friends as teenagers in the rural north of England, moved to London, enjoyed careers in journalism and PR respectively, married and had children, but continued to seek out stylish interior design and quality home accessories.

“Everything is designed to look beautiful but also to be used. There’s a saying that some things should be beautiful or practical, well we think things should be both”, says Jo.

Howat and Hutchinson's extensive collection includes beautiful leather and cowhide homeware, storage solutions, gifts and desk accessories. Not to mention, their beautiful leather and cowhide umbrella stands, which are very popular and a necessity for any household with the British weather!
