My story

“Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful” - William Morris.

Craftsmanship and beauty are at the core of any upholstered piece and are what inspire me in my work. I have always had a great love of textiles and antiques and have been able to combine these passions to create Mogarth Upholstery.

I began my career with a BA Honours in Fashion Design & Textiles followed by a Postgraduate Certificate in Fashion Buying & Merchandising at University of the Arts London. I then worked in design and buying for a range of indepedent and global brands in London before a move home to Glasgow gave me the opportunity to develop my own business.

I completed my Upholstery diploma with the Association of Master Upholsterers and Soft Furnishers in Stirling studying with Master Upholsterer, James Keane graduating with distiction. Training in Soft Furnishings was also undertaken at Glasgow Clyde College.
