ANGELA WICKSTEAD HOME is a purveyor of beautiful classic linens. Since quietly launching in February 2017, Wickstead’s brand has already attracted a devoted international following for its competitively priced luxury Italian bed, bath and table linen.
After 35 years’ experience in the fashion and interiors industries, London-based Wickstead has a sharp eye for detail and admits to being a textiles obsessive. Fabrics are sourced utilising the finest Italian craftsmanship from both France & Italy’s most prestigious mills and heritage workrooms.
Angela has a strong connection with Italy, it is in her blood. Her Florentine mother has fuelled her passion and love affair for artisanal Italian linen and the Italian textile craft. Angela herself lived in Milan for a great many years, and always considers her Italian heritage, and memories, as part of her legacy. The Italian cultural traditions and customs inherited from her mother, continue to richly influence her collections today.
"Without it sounding too pretentious or design too important, I still believe a good surrounding can make a difference to one's well-being. Beauty exists essentially not in the triviality of abundance but in delicacy, rarity and passion". Angela’s vocation within the fashion and interior industry in New Zealand, Milan and London over the last twenty five years has meant that she now brings to the table a personal and unique take on home and personable pieces. Her innate sense of style and experience channels lifestyle, and more than aesthetically pleasing, quality focused product.
