The range includes luxury organic linen tablecloths, napkins, runners and placemats (some chic leather ones as well) in Dining; aprons, tea-towels, oven gloves, shopping bags and more in Cooking; and candles, lavender bags and gift wraps in the Gifting section - each of which are listed on the left-hand side of the homepage, or highlighted via certain products on the right. Hampers and pampering gifts include baskets with lavender bags, natural beeswax candles in terracotta pots and bottles of hand lotion. There is also a small selection of cookbooks and hand thrown jugs and vases by British potter, Linda Bloomfield. You can download a brochure to browse offline, should you wish.

WHY ORGANIC?

Along the top of the homepage, you can click through to some excellent articles, which tell you all about the process behind Organic Cotton and Organic Linen and why these are better than the alternatives. It also explains what Oeko-tex is (an international testing & certification system for textiles) in great depth. Meanwhile, there is a whole passage telling you all about ochre: where it comes from, how different shades are produced, its benefits and history (man has been using ochres for centuries); who uses it across the world and how and where the word ‘ochre' comes from.

FREE GIFT WRAP

The company offers free gift wrap on all orders, to one destination. If customers would like items wrapped individually they need to advise Ochre and Ocre using the comments box when ordering at the check out.

ECOLOGIGALLY & ETHICALLY SOUND

Company owner, Tess is clearly passionate about the subject and the website reflects this, answering a growing eco-conscious demand from consumers to know what they are buying and where it is coming from. At Ochre & Ocre, all products are made in Europe, helping to reduce its carbon footprint, lower transport costs (equating to a better value product line) and ensure excellent working conditions are maintained throughout its factories.
