Gainsborough Weaving

Gainsborough Fine Weavers & Dye House embodies over a century of British craftsmanship, with all design, hand-dyeing and weaving taking place in Sudbury.

Founded in 1903, Gainsborough Fine Weavers & Dye House embodies over a century of British craftsmanship. The entire production process – from design, to hand-dyeing yarns, to weaving the finished fabrics – takes place on the site we have occupied since 1924. We received the Royal Warrant from HM The Queen in 1980.

Alongside our own collections, Gainsborough has long been the textile house for any interior designer seeking beautiful bespoke fabrics, from contemporary, geometric styles to the richest of damasks and pearl-embroidered silks, and our willingness to support creative craftspeople in their endeavours remains a cornerstone of our offering.
