Hand and Lock is a London-based specialist embroidery atelier, supplying the Royal family, the British military, European fashion houses and Savile Row. Take a peek inside this fascinating company as Jessica Jane, Hand and Lock’s Production Director takes us round the atelier:

Hand and Lock are constantly adding new samples to their library: here are images of some of their latest developments, using their new selection of coloured goldwork bullions.

In her own words…

Alice Murrell is Production Coordinator at Hand and Lock and loves her role.

The most exciting thing about working at Hand & Lock is the variety of work we do. No two days are the same; I’ll be working on a goldwork badge for Burberry one day and the interior of a Bentley concept car the next!

Hand and Lock’s main website is handembroidery.com where you can find information on bespoke work. They also have a shop website (for stock items) which you can find at handembroideryshop.com .
