WHITTLE AND WEAR
The idea for Whittle and Wear first came in 2023 when Printmaker, Artist and Designer Amy Lanyon found herself with a lot of wood offcuts leftover from her sign making business. Being the grandaughter of St Ives' landscape artist Peter Lanyon, Amy had major influence growing up being surrounded by inspirational artwork and decided to put her artistry talents to good use by hand painting laser cut wooden shapes to make jewellery.
Amy quickly got to work and by the summer had launched a range of stud earrings cut in simple shapes, each one meticulously handpainted to be unique and one of a kind. The response was amazing and her little sideline business was born! She quickly expanded her collections to include double-sided flower shaped hoops, drop earrings and pin badges in fun and unusual designs.
Amy attended numerous Farmers Markets and Craft Fairs in the run up to Christmas, which with a small family was pretty exausting, so she decided the next step for Whittle and Wear would be to open up to the wholesale market.
So in the October Amy launched a crowdfunding campaign to showcase her new business at the prestigious Top Drawer London trade show in January. Christmas sales were great and the business had accelerated so unexpectedly that after the show Amy decided to wind down her signage business and concentrate solely on her jewellery.
Needless to say Top Drawer was a great success - and not just because that's how Green Tulip became the very first ever Whittle and Wear stockist!

Love the placemats. They look gorgeous and do the job well. However the drinks coasters vary in size slightly and curl up at the edges. They are also not completely flat in the middle which means that putting a glass of wine on them is a bit problematic! Ok if you want to use them for heavier glasses/mugs etc
I ordered a couple of placemats for my table in the balcony. They arrived quickly and very well packed, and product itself is great quality.
This is my second purchase of the Paris ian perfume by Ampersand. Such a lovely summer scent, yo be recommended.
Was looking for some place mats and coasters for outdoor dining, found just what I was looking for on Greentulip, fast delivery and communication, items were well wrapped, very happy customer
Such attentive customer care and such beautifully wrapped gifts - the bath bombs smell gorgeous. Thank you so very much!
