British Designed, British Made.
Based in East Sussex we are a family run, British company proud to produce luxury hand finished Greetings Cards, Boxed Silver Jewellery Cards, Boxed Scented Candle and Greeting Cards, Ceramics, Gift Wrap, Stationery and Prints.
In 2016 Crumble & Core began its life when 3 friends Jilly, Lucy & Lou came together with a cuppa around the kitchen table looking at Jilly’s beautiful artwork.
We wanted to find a way that we could use her incredible artwork to create a beautiful range of Cards and Gifts.
We all had very different skillsets, but collectively all those skills put together with a sprinkle of passion, drive and a sense of humour made us lucky enough to land the best job in the world – working together!
Since then we have grown, and now run our business from a beautiful Oast house on a dairy farm in the stunning East Sussex countryside, with our products sold extensively in the UK and Worldwide. The kitchen table came with us, where Jilly still sits and continues to creates our watercolour world.
