Studio Gallimore

Collaborations

Occasional work with people who make things properly. A collaboration happens when the other maker's eye and ours agree.

Three Emi silk scarves pegged to a line across a field under a pale sky: dahlias in a red check border, hydrangea and agapanthus in navy, white peonies in brown.

The first collaboration

Studio Gallimore × Emi Scarves

Eight silk scarves, six of each.

The scarves

Studio Gallimore flowers, in silk.

Studio Gallimore arranged and photographed the flowers for every design, and each one was developed with Emi from start to finish. Every flower was fresh, and photographed at its best. There are eight designs, each a limited edition of six.

Care

To properly care for your silk headscarf, hand wash it in cold water, gently agitating to avoid damaging the fibres. Do not wring or twist the fabric, as this can cause it to lose its shape.

After washing, lay the scarf flat on a clean towel to air dry, keeping it out of direct sunlight to prevent colour fading.

When ironing, use a low heat setting and avoid pressing over the rolled edges. For storage, fold the scarf neatly and keep it in a cool, dry place, away from light and humidity.

Made with Emi, who design silk twill headscarves. Studio Gallimore arranged and photographed every flower on them.

The designs

Eight designs.

Six have hand-rolled edges and two a soft frayed finish. Each has its own page, naming the flowers in it and the border round them.

  • Belle, a silk scarf printed with white garden roses and scabiosa beneath dark astrantia and sanguisorba heads on a pale ground, framed by a brown and white checkerboard border.
    Hand-rolled edgeBelle£72

    Homegrown garden roses and white scabiosa, scattered with Bordeaux astrantia and Sanguisorba 'Tanna', framed by Emi's classic checkerboard border.

  • Blythe, a silk scarf printed with a ring of orange, red and gold dahlias on a pale ground, inside an orange and red check border.
    Hand-rolled edgeBlythe£72

    The studio's favourite of the eight. Dahlias in warm shades from Mr H's garden, found in a difficult summer for growing, framed by Emi's check border, which sits with almost any colour.

  • Briar, a silk scarf printed with a close view of white peonies, scabiosa and astrantia among dark foliage, framed in deep olive with a fine ivory line.
    Hand-rolled edgeBriar£72

    A Studio Gallimore wedding bouquet, printed in silk. A July bride chose green and white: full summer peonies, white scabiosa, astrantia, Queen Anne's lace and mixed eucalyptus. It is framed in deep olive with a fine ivory line.

  • Bryn, a silk scarf printed with cream roses and orange ranunculus in a dark urn, framed in olive with a black and white checkerboard border.
    Hand-rolled edgeBryn£72

    The same arrangement as Betsy: ranunculus, cream roses and carnations with hypericum berries and astrantia 'Billion Star'. Photographed from a few steps further back, it shows the whole arrangement in its urn, framed by a bolder olive and checkerboard border.

  • Blu, a silk scarf printed with blue agapanthus, ivory hydrangeas and orange crocosmia on a soft grey ground, framed in navy and cream stripes.
    Hand-rolled edgeBlu£72

    Garden-grown flowers: ivory hydrangeas, orange crocosmia and blue agapanthus, also known as African lily or lily of the Nile, with a scattering of blue scabiosa. It is framed in navy and cream stripes.

  • Bloom, a silk scarf printed with orange, pink and green chrysanthemums among Queen Anne's lace, inside a deep green border with a green and white check.
    Hand-rolled edgeBloom£72

    A full arrangement in green, salmon orange and pink, with Queen Anne's lace foraged locally and small chrysanthemums. The colours are not tied to a season, so it can be worn all year. It is framed in deep green with a fine green and white check.

  • Betsy, a silk scarf printed with orange ranunculus and cream roses against a dark ground, with a soft beige frayed edge.
    Frayed edgeBetsy£85

    Ranunculus, classic cream roses and carnations, with hypericum berries and astrantia 'Billion Star', set against a dark ground. The soft beige frayed edge makes it easy to wear with most things, in any season.

  • Bailie, a silk scarf held against a painted brick wall, filled edge to edge with peach, blush and ivory roses and finished with a pale frayed edge.
    Frayed edgeBailie£85

    An abundant arrangement of peach, blush, ivory and green fills the square, with a blur overlay designed to make people look twice. The frayed edge gives the silk a softer, more relaxed finish.

Blythe

Dahlias from Mr H’s garden.

Blythe is the studio’s favourite of the eight, and its dahlias came from Mr H’s garden. The summer of 2026 was hard on gardens across the country, his included, but he still found enough dahlias in warm shades for the arrangement. Emi’s check border means it will sit with almost any colour you wear it with.

Briar

A July wedding bouquet.

Briar is a Studio Gallimore wedding bouquet, printed in silk. The bride chose green and white: full summer peonies, white scabiosa, astrantia, Queen Anne’s lace and mixed eucalyptus.

Principles

How we choose

One at a time

We would rather do one collaboration well than keep a rolling programme of them.

Made, not licensed

The work is designed together and produced in small numbers. Our name does not go on something we did not help make.

It has to earn the house

The same question we ask of everything else: is it better, more useful or more enduring than what is already there?

If you make something beautifully and think it belongs in this house, we would like to hear from you.
