British textile brand Tori Murphy has launched Rose, a classic collection of English-woven cotton and merino wool fabrics, homewares and kitchen textiles inspired by an oil painting with a long story to tell. 

The Rose collection is a celebration of the importance of creativity, and the twists and turns life takes to lead us to a place where we can flourish.  

Woven in designer Tori’s signature graphic style, the collection includes three new designs: Rose, a modern, pared back floral, Portrait Check, a bold, monochrome check and Ilen Stripe, an organic intertwining stripe, in a palette of old rose, black and chestnut. 

A selection of the new designs are shown in the images here.

Maintaining Tori’s strong British manufacturing ethic, the collection includes cotton and merino wool fabrics by the metre suitable for upholstery, curtains and accessories, as well as cushions, baskets and a wide range of elegantly utilitarian cotton kitchen textiles, all 100% woven and made in England, and is stocked by such prestigious stores as Harrods, Harvey Nichols and The Conran, and in showrooms worldwide.

Tori Murphy founded her eponymous brand in 2012 with the simple aim to create products for the home with character and integrity, all woven and made in England.

After graduating from the prestigious Royal Collection of Art, Tori worked in Milan designing prints for clients including DKNY, Fendi, and Christian Dior and it's here she experienced the factory floor for the first time and developed a sound understanding and love of textile production.

After this rewarding experience, Tori returned home and combined her passions into one and focused on English textile manufacturing.  With a firm belief and plenty of perseverance she succeeded in finding weavers in Lancashire, finishers in Yorkshire and machinists in Nottingham willing to support her.

From her first fabric run of 12 metres of woven Merino wool, Tori made a capsule collection of throws and cushions which she exhibited in London in June 2012 and it was here she took her first order from a store on London's New King's Road, signalling the launch of Tori Murphy Ltd.

Tori and her team operate from a small factory in Nottingham, the product range has grown to 15 categories, and her website cum shop - torimurphy.com was launched in 2013.
