Once upon thames

Richmond

Richmond has been worth choosing for a very long time.Henry VII chose it in 1501. Turner painted it repeatedly. The view from Richmond Hill is protected by Act of Parliament.A unique place, a village nestled in one of the great cities of the world, where you wake up to deer.Once Upon Thames is a quiet celebration of that choice. We make considered objects for those who chose to be here. And for those who have never quite left.
