Willow & Stone - Falmouth
At Willow & Stone we specialise in selling quality Period Ironmongery to people taking on extraordinary projects restoring their beloved homes as well as designers and architects furnishing hotels and projects around the globe.
I set up Willow & Stone in 2005 after leaving the Architectural salvage trade in London. I wanted to follow a dream of living by the sea back in Falmouth, Cornwall where I’d studied a few years earlier that an early online presence facilitated.

We first set up the e-commerce website and a year later, after plenty of set-backs, we opened our first shop in a pretty corner off Falmouth’s harbour, 3 years later a second shop followed as we embraced unusual stationery, cards and prints. We quickly outgrew these premises and in 2012 moved to our current location up the road, a large double fronted store with everything housed under one roof.
Eventually our website moved into offices directly over the road and finally we have some space to grow and be creative on a street and within a community that we love and feel very much a part of. Our window displays attract interest far and wide and I am very fortunate that my wonderful team includes many ex Falmouth University creatives who are only too happy to let their imaginations run wild!
Visit our Falmouth store to view our eclectic mix of homeware products which include everything from ironmongery to lighting, books to stationery and plant pots to puzzles. Our collections are unique and carefully considered with classic styling and long lasting quality at their core.
