Heirlooms Collaboration with India Hick – Warm Harbour

WARM HARBOUR

With their exquisite eye for detail and fabrics sourced from the finest weavers, Heirlooms, found their ideal design collaboration partner with India Hicks.

Humanitarian, designer, author, entrepreneur, and mother of five.   India brought her design skills, along with a hint of her life in the Bahamas, to Heirlooms, the holder of two Royal Warrants.  Visiting their head office in West Sussex India worked closely with the in-house design team.   The result is an elegant bed linen collection ‘Warm Harbour’ which encapsulating the natural beauty of island life in the Bahamas.

There are three colourways; Morning Mist, Tidal Blue and Shell White in the collection.   Warm Harbour is made using high quality premium cotton sateen.  The amazing fabric was hand selected by India Hicks for its superior properties.  This is due to the air jet woven technique which produces sumptuous softness and high performance fabrics.

Included in the collection are decorative cushions made from a luxurious blend of cotton and linen.  This featuring a toile print of India’s Bahamian life.  There are hidden surprises.  Such as her much-loved dog Banger and parrot Jenga.  All are hidden amongst the spider lilies and sunsets. Finished with a ticking stripe on the reverse for a change of look when desired. “Live an Extraordinary Life” encapsulates both India’s incredible life journey and Heirlooms sense of their adventurous customers.
