We have just unpacked a container from India.

As you may already know, we have mostly "one off" pieces, so it takes us quite a while to photograph and get them all into the online shop. Often things have been sold before they are photographed. We always have lots of antique and reproduction pieces to choose from, but there is nothing like "new blood". When I mention our online shop to our regular Indigo customers, they look at me horrified and wonder why people would not want to walk through our lovely showrooms, sipping coffee, having a relaxed time shopping and a fun day out in the country. They all say, " They much prefer to come in and look around and to touch things. Everything is so tactile."
