Local designer, Victoria Eggs, has received international press coverage with her products, which are stocked in over 300 retailers in the UK and around the world, including well-known stores such as Harrods, Waterstones, Scribbler, Selfridges, Paperchase and Whole Foods. Victoria graduated from Birmingham Institute of Art & Design in 2005 with a BA in Fine Art. Soon after she moved to Sydney, Australia designing T-shirt graphics for iconic fashion brand, Ben Sherman. It was then that Victoria became fascinated by the British imagery she was drawing and realised how many wonderful memories they brought to life, including exploring the woodlands and wildlife that surrounded her growing up in Royston. When Victoria returned home to the UK, she decided to develop her own designs capturing these special moments: the buzz and excitement of visiting London as a small child; the unmistakable smell of fish and chips at the seaside; the simple joy of licking the spoon when baking cakes with her young daughter and the pure delight and magic that fills the air at Christmas. Victoria screen printed the first designs onto tea towels and began selling them at markets in March 2011, ten years ago! She now works with manufacturers and family run businesses throughout the UK who skilfully produce her heartfelt gifts. Victoria is passionate about manufacturing locally, being socially conscious, using environmentally friendly practices, sustainable supply chains and recyclable packaging. She’s driven by a desire to bring more of the heart into the home.
