("Sanderson Design Group", the "Company" or the "Group")
Launch of the Highgrove by Sanderson collection
Royal Warrant holder Sanderson in exciting collaboration with Highgrove and
The King's Foundation
Sanderson Design Group PLC (AIM: SDG), the luxury interior design and
furnishings group, announces the launch of the Highgrove by Sanderson
collection, an evocative range of fabrics and wallpapers inspired by Highgrove
Gardens, the renowned gardens restored, nurtured and transformed by King
Charles III over the past 45 years. The gardens, which attract up to 40,000
visitors a year, surround the private residence of King Charles III and Queen
Camilla at Highgrove House in Gloucestershire.
The Highgrove by Sanderson collection has been created through an exciting
collaboration between the Sanderson brand, Highgrove and The King's
Foundation, a charity founded by King Charles III focused on building
sustainable communities and transforming lives through education in heritage
skills. Highgrove is a commercial business based at Highgrove Gardens whose
profits support The King's Foundation, the custodian of the gardens.
The collaboration developed from the Company's work with QEST, the Queen
Elizabeth Scholarship Trust. QEST was founded 35 years ago by Queen Elizabeth
The Queen Mother to support excellence in making. The Company's support for
QEST includes the annual Sanderson Rising Star Craft Award.
The Highgrove by Sanderson collection, which will be launched on 1 May 2025,
draws on the Sanderson archive and comprises more than 100 wallpapers,
fabrics, weaves, and embroideries. The collection will be sold online, in
Highgrove shops, and through the Company's global distribution network.
Highgrove will receive a royalty on sales of the collection which will go to
The King's Foundation to support the charity's valuable work.
Lisa Montague, Chief Executive Officer of Sanderson Design Group, said: "It
has been a great honour to work with Highgrove and The King's Foundation on
this wonderful Sanderson collection, which reflects His Majesty's passion and
enthusiasm for the remarkable gardens created at Highgrove. It is also an
honour for the Company to be able to contribute to The King's Foundation's
important charitable work through the collection's sales.
"As a Royal Warrant holder, Sanderson is committed to excellence in design.
The brand shares important values with The King's Foundation, particularly in
upholding craft skills and protecting heritage. We look forward to the launch
and commercial success of this collection."
Scott Simpson, Retail Director at The King's Foundation, said: "We are
delighted to be working with Sanderson, particularly given their steadfast
support for British heritage and design. In the spirit of everything we do at
Highgrove, this collection has been inspired by the beautiful gardens which
are open to the public for visitors to enjoy. We look forward to welcoming
guests who can discover the original inspirations for the designs featured in
the collection."
