Its fabrics and wallpapers are always a favourite with interior designers, but George Spencer Designs are also the go-to name for trimmings. The popularity of passementerie is part of the resurgence of fun and bold decorative detailing – a style trend that is firmly here to stay.
Once the preserve of traditional upholstery and curtains, trimmings have made their way into chic, contemporary interiors. They are the perfect pairing for maximalist designs and provide the extra layer of pattern, texture and detail to elevate curtains, sofas, cushions and more.
Entirely handmade in England by Heritage Trimmings for George Spencer Designs, the comprehensive range includes block and bullion fringes, tassels, ruche, rope and braids, in mercerised cotton and wool. These can be used together to create a unique combination or are equally as strong when used alone.
George Spencer Designs’ house colours run through the entire collection, but a bespoke service is available, offering custom-colouring and sizing to order. Alternatively, an archived design can be recreated, or a favourite trimming can be replicated – the passementerie possibilities are almost endless.
