About 'Alkemest
'Alkemest is an innovative British brand bringing beautiful contemporary print to gifts, art and accessories.
'Alkemest puts clever design at the heart of each creation, so that as well as being life-enhancing and genuinely useful, you can expect a little something extra… Sumptuously fun prints, seamless practicality and an irresistibly joyful sense of humour.
Everyday objects designed to be that little bit extra-ordinary.
'Alkemest Values
Crucially, 'Alkemest only creates products from biodegradable and naturally sourced materials, and wherever possible they’ll arrive with you in packaging that is compostable and recyclable.
'Alkemest's vegan products are non-toxic, created from plant-based materials to be as biodegradable as possible – with innovative cactus and pineapple fibres taking the place of flimsy and planet-poisoning PU ‘vegan’ leathers.
'Alkemest is founded on the principle that designing a beautiful future means making long-term sustainable choices now.
