About Trevilllian &Trevillian

Trevillian & Trevillian is part of the BAF GROUP PTY LTD, an Australian owned family company founded by Leigh and Anna Trevillian.

Trevillian & Trevillian was launched to combine unique traditional textiles from all parts of the world with contemporary designs.

The highest quality cottons and silks are combined with handmade textiles to create timeless, stylish and totally unique homewares.

New fabrics made in the traditional art form and original antique pieces are included in the collection range.

Trevillian & Trevillian works to preserve traditional textiles and to create a market in which these methods of production can ensure a livelihood for those still working in these ancient art forms.

Textiles are sourced globally from countries where hand weaving, embroidery, natural dying processes, art and textile design represent the culture of the people. The production of handmade, traditional fabric is becoming very rare. With the focus on modern life and a wide use of machine manufacturing these traditions are being lost.

Trevillian & Trevillian encourages traditional textiles to be continued. We have formed important relationships with village, hill tribe groups and local organisations supporting these handmade crafts. Through Anna and Leigh's support younger members of the village have been encouraged to continue the skills and traditions.

Trevillian & Trevillian work with the people to continue their traditions, teach their children and develop a 'living wage', beyond subsistence or exploitation.

Trevillian & Trevillian are committed to the implementation of fair labour practices and environmentally sound manufacturing.

Anna's background is in Design and retail buying, Anna has a wide knowledge of fabrics, construction and design fundamentals. Leigh's background is as a medical doctor in international health. Leigh has worked extensively with indigenous peoples throughout Asia, the Pacific and Africa. Together they have formed a business that offers beautiful, unique and stylish products that help to keep handmade textiles, unique applications and natural dyes alive.

All handmade textiles are made within a natural environment.

We help to sustain traditional handworked techniques using natural fibres and plant dyes. Trevillian & Trevillian work closely with the local artists and producers to ensure all art forms they use are properly preserved and sustained. These historic processes are rapidly becoming endangered. Your support will help rescue and sustain this treasured tradition.

"Trevillian and Trevillian represents the passion we both share for high quality products, traditional handmade textiles and unique, stylish homewares"
