Why I Love Whittle and Wear

Green Tulip Founder
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!
I love finding a brand that is just starting out on their journey, and especially one that is using up something that would otherwise be wasted. I met Amy at her first ever trade show and, once we'd had a good chat about her story and her lovely products, I knew they'd be a great addition to our Green Tulip range. I hope you like them as much as I do!

I discovered these oxygen tablets for toilet cleaning on another eco site, but they were out of stock, so I searched and found them on green tulip. The ordering process was very easy and delivery was very quick, with sustainable packaging. I also received a very nice, friendly thank you message after my order. I will look at green tulip again, once my current eco products run out. Thank you, green tulip
They are great, I love them. Just pop one into the toilet bowl, leave a couple of minutes to fizz up, then brush the whole toilet bowl. They smell lovely and fresh and clean effectively. It’s great not to be polluting our waterways and not throwing away endless plastic bottles, as they come in a biodegradable wrap.
Ordered deodorant, toothbrushes and interdental brushes and they were delivered quickly, in great condition and eco packaging.
Prices were the best I could find and I love that they're a Living Wage employer.
Great products and peace of mind because they're ethically run. Definitely will order again
I couldn't be more pleased with every aspect of my Green Tulip experience. The reusable food storage containers are not only highly functional but gorgeous as well, and the swift, plastic-free packaging was awesome.
Green Tulip are so accommodating. I ordered their Kochi stainless steel food containers which are an ideal size for me as a single person and perfect for freezing. Green Tulip were happy to order in more for me and to let me know when they'd received them. I shall definitely be looking at what else I can order from them. Their delivery times are quick as well, an excellent company.
