Meet the Founder
“I set up Albie & Pearl after years of dreaming of having an interiors brand, as a celebration of a stylish, slower & sustainable way of life.”
After working for nearly twenty years as a womenswear designer in the world of fast fashion, after the birth of my second child I knew it was time for a change of pace. We moved out of London and down to the Kent coast in search of a more balanced life, one where I could see my children more and be creative on my own terms.
I have always had a passion for home and interiors. With my background in fashion, colour and trend I work to curate joyful collections of vintage homewares, art and lighting, whilst having as little impact on the planet as possible. I love the fact I take items that are already out there and give them a second life, the quality and individuality of vintage and antiques deserve to be celebrated!
