Experience the natural beauty of wool, rattan, timber and organic cotton. To us 100% natural is more than a modern-day luxury but offers the best performance and superior earth-friendly credentials. 

There’s a time and a place for minimalism; winter 2021, however, is not it. This season, we’re celebrating colour, pattern play and rich texture.

To show our gratitude for their dedicated approach and partnership with us at Cranfields, we hosted a morning tea with some of the Hohepa workers, and thought it would be a great opportunity to spotlight their incredible work with a blog post!

We love working with local businesses and so many are run by talented multi-tasking mothers! See below for their shared love of ecology and leaving a gentle footprint on the earth.

Did you realise there are suggested gifting themes for each year? In the 1920s, Emily Post, an American writer, came up with a list of anniversary themes in a book titled “Etiquette”. More recently the themes have been given a refresh.

"Like all products at Cranfields, my pieces are not trends but are items that will last a lifetime." -Isabel Saiz

"Cranfields supports a great group of NZ based, and more importantly Wellington based makers, and the team at Cranfields are always happy to go out of their way for their customers." -Zoe Porter

The first of the Cranfields Stories: Meet William who shares his playful + poetic memories: "Cranfields choreographs a collection with a difference yet there’s a quality thread that links all the goodies."

We have always encouraged questions from our customers like: Who made it and how? Where is it made?’ What are the materials and where did they come from? 

These recipes are nutritionally dense and filled with joy – ideal when seeking comfort and wishing to nourish. 

There’s an art to looking good and when you get it right you’ll feel ready to tackle the world. Good quality accessories are key.
