A Reverence for Blending Heritage with Modern Elegance
“When envisioning the throw blankets that I wanted to create, I had the desire to seek out a brand that celebrated rural craftsmanship. I pictured heritage quality, completely natural materials, and a setting that would inspire me with a feeling of sanctuary and beauty which would translate to those who had the throws in their own homes.”
When I met with Araminta, she spoke of the natural setting in which she creates, the small, family-owned mills in Scotland which she supports, her values of slow luxury and excellence in craftsmanship, and I felt completely aligned with her vision and the quality of the Araminta Campbell brand.” – Natalie King
This shared vision has brought us together to create an exclusive collection of limited-edition throws, with a bespoke design for Natalie King. Made from a luxurious blend of 85% British alpaca and 15% rose fibre, each throw is a true celebration of craftsmanship, marrying timeless tradition with modern grace. Thoughtfully curated, they offer a softness and sophistication that transforms any space into a haven of elegance.
The Design Story – Ivy Covered Wall
Inspired by the delicate yet enduring ivy cascading down an ancient stone wall by a peaceful riverbank, this design captures nature’s quiet resilience. The intertwined vines are a symbol of the graceful balance between fragility and strength—an essence carefully woven into every thread of these bespoke throws.
Lovingly crafted by our artisan mill partners in Scotland, these pieces uphold the time-honoured craft of weaving while supporting local communities. More than just throws, they are a tribute to the landscapes that inspire us and the heritage that defines us. Each piece is a timeless reminder of the sanctuary we all seek in our lives, a cherished addition to your home, available only through this exclusive collaboration.

A Shared Vision
“The Atelier where Araminta creates, a castle made of stone and surrounded by nature, is a setting that is enchanting. The mill in Scotland is the embodiment of exactly what we were seeking – a small, family run mill that represent generations of those who have deep commitment to craftsmanship. I wanted to create pieces that are of heirloom quality, of softness, and reflections of nature, and with Araminta Campbell these visions came to life.” – Natalie King
A Forever Piece For Your Home
“A throw blanket is not only a finishing touch to a sofa or chair, but also an embodiment of a moment in our day that is deeply restorative.”
When designing this luxurious throw collection with Natalie, we wanted to ensure its versatility. Whether draped in a heritage property, where centuries of stone and architecture are complemented by the natural palette and softness of the throws, or in a more contemporary setting, where the subtle pattern brings grounding feelings of nature, it works beautifully across diverse interiors.
In shaping this collection, Araminta asked Natalie King how she envisioned these pieces working in people’s homes and, more importantly, how she wanted the throws to make people feel. This dialogue was a key element of the design process, as it reflects Araminta Campbell’s philosophy in every piece we creates—honouring the connection between place, people, and the emotions a well-crafted design evokes. Through this collaboration, we’ve ensured that each throw brings not just warmth, but a sense of belonging and peace.

We are guardians of people’s stories...
We ourselves are stories that weave and take shape through the thread, thanks to the gentle hands of the weavers.
The yarn, the loom, our and your stories, are the tools we have chosen to make what cannot be seen or touched, real and wearable. We give shape to the values in which we believe, we give voice to stories to be shared with those dearest to us, forever.
Not just exquisite works of art to wear, but ambassadors, ‘talking’ objects, timeless storytellers of meanings and values that we want to preserve and pass on.
Meet Isabelle, one of our talented handweavers!
Isabelle has long had an interest in textiles, ever since her grandmother taught her to sew.
She discovered weaving when visiting universities before applying to study. Immediately captivated by the woven textile displays at Loughborough University – the home of our George Wood looms – She became fascinated by how these complex woven structures could be created from just a few cones of yarn.
Isabelle enjoys the slow, hands-on process of weaving, appreciating how it demands your full and present focus, and is always excited to share the complexities of handweaving to our visitors.
Meet Helen, one of our talented handweavers!
As an advocate for sustainability and ethical production, handweaving appealed to Helen as the embodiment of slow, responsible craft.
She fell in love with the challenging yet meditative weave process during her textile degree at the Glasgow School of Art.
Helen adores that she can name the alpacas in the pieces that she weaves, as this level of provenance imbues the pieces with deeper meaning for both weaver and future owner.
We choose 100% undyed British alpaca fiber for our designs because it embodies the values we hold dear: sustainability, durability, and unparalleled luxury. Each fleece is sourced from carefully chosen UK farms where animal welfare is a top priority.
Our close relationships with breeders enable us to trace many of our yarns back to the individual alpacas, ensuring exceptional quality and transparency. The alpaca’s fleeces are left undyed, allowing the natural richness and unique tones of their coats to shine through in every piece.
In the UK, only 5–10% of alpacas produce fleece of the exceptional quality we require. Every fiber is meticulously selected for its fineness, crimp, luster, and colour, ensuring our pieces meet the highest standards of luxury and craftsmanship.
It has taken years for our weavers to attain the skill and knowledge required to create our handwoven items.
Handweaving takes precision and patience, with each warp prepared by hand and meticulously threaded through the shafts of the loom. Once weaving is complete there is a lengthy finishing process involving darning, stitching, washing and brushing – all by hand.
It can take our handweavers anywhere between 2 to 6 weeks to complete one of our Signature pieces.
Each piece in our Heritage handwoven collection has been inspired by Araminta’s deep love for the natural beauty of the Scottish landscape.
From the golden glow of the beech woodlands surrounding her family home in the Royal Deeside Corridor during autumn, to the ethereal light of the Scottish Highlands at dawn and dusk, the landscape is a constant source of inspiration for Araminta. The shifting interplay of colours, textures, and natural rhythms informs each handwoven piece, translating fleeting moments into timeless design.
Any moment in time could become Araminta’s next creation.
Meet Lisa, one of our talented handweavers!
Lisa studied weaving at Heriot Watt University, in the borders of Scotland – an area renowned for its textile production.
She always enjoyed creating things and was recommended to study textiles by her art teacher. When first starting out in her weave degree, she found the slow process of setting up challenging, yet today it’s her favourite part.
She finds peace whilst threading the loom, enjoying and embracing the flow.
Each piece has been lovingly handwoven and finished in our Edinburgh Atelier by our team of handweavers on vintage George Wood looms.
Araminta Campbell is one of the largest employers of handweavers in Scotland, fostering employment for talented craftspeople in Scotland plays a vital role in preserving the rich legacy of Scottish textile craftsmanship. Every thread woven in the Atelier carries with it the heritage and passion of centuries-old traditions, brought vividly to life through contemporary designs, and the work of our talented weavers.
