What we do

The unique concept of Villa & Hut Handcrafted Homewear began in Melbourne, Australia in 1999, followed closely by Brighton, and now our Portslade warehouse in the UK.

Retail

This distinctive and unrivalled mix of homewares from far-reaching and exotic locations come together in a retail environment that immediately reminds you of both travels experienced and those yet to be accomplished. The owners of Villa & Hut pride themselves in dealing directly with the crafts people and villages ensuring fair trade, fair prices and first rate quality.

Whether it be the use of recycled or plantation grown timbers for its furniture, natural fibres for its lamps or placemats, hand woven fabrics for its cushions or floor mats, or sculptured ceramics and pottery made in the same traditional ways as handed down over the centuries, every item meets the highest standards achievable in both quality and ethical commerce & trade.

Wholesale

Villa & Hut manufacture and source in excess of 95% of the products in their stores. Both Nigel and Jackie (partners in the business) spend approximately nine months of the year travelling throughout Asia and the archipelago buying products direct from the villages.

We welcome wholesale and trade enquiries, as well as hire of product for uses such as photo shoots, functions and display homes etc.
