Paying homage to England’s rich legacy, the exclusive collection embraces timeless designs, bespoke hand-painted prints, and luxurious fabrics. With a seamless blend of traditional flair and contemporary living, the collection tells a story of meticulous design and authentic craftsmanship. Discover the collection today through Barker and Stonehouse, where their 75 years of experience puts you in safe hands.

The range is made up of three collections which have each been inspired by one of our iconic sites: Belsay Hall, Castle & Gardens, Down House, and Osborne. Each collection tells a story of the rich heritage of these sites and the famous figures who once lived there.

By shopping these exclusive collections you're further supporting the valuable work of English Heritage in caring for hundreds of sites and millions of artefacts from England's history.

Boasting sweeping views over gentle rolling countryside, Belsay Hall, Castle & Gardens, is set within the evocative landscape of Northumberland’s ‘border country’. It's comprised of three distinct, related elements: a medieval castle, a 19 Century Greek Revival mansion, and outstanding gardens featuring rhododendrons, formal areas and the picturesque ravines of the Quarry Garden. The hand painted textile design celebrates the stunning rhododendrons of the Quarry Garden at Belsay.

Rosa collection, inspired by Osborne

Queen Victoria and Prince Albert bought the Osborne estate on the Isle of Wight in 1845, which became their family home by the sea. You’ll find Queen Victoria’s bedroom at Osborne preserved exactly as she enjoyed it over 150 years ago. Its remarkable details, richly decorated with an exquisite rose chintz pattern, have inspired the rich floral tapestry of the Rosa collection.

    Down House is a site of outstanding international significance. Here the famous scientist Charles Darwin lived with his family for forty years and worked on his revolutionary theories.

It was a true pleasure to work with the English Heritage team to develop our furniture range. So many licensing collaborations feel dishonest for the consumer, we were insistent that our range would take genuine inspiration from English Heritage’s fantastic sites, and the EH team were excellent at working with us to do just that, whilst giving us the creative freedom needed on our product to do what we do best. It’s resulted in both a commercial and authentic product offering.
