In 2011 we launched our first concept store in Central London on Newburgh Street. As Lorraine and I love art, the addition of a gallery was a very easy and natural decision. The space called – THE BASEMENT GALLERY, allows us to curate and showcase the artists we love and think are fresh and new.
Over past year and a half we have showcased some amazingly talented people. Here are a few of them:
Debbie Lawson / Geza Szollosi / Beth Carter / Natalia Escobar / Simeon Farrar / Mr Clements / Hin / Patrick Haines
The Curiosity bag is the result of the collaboration between Pyrus and international lifestyle publication Oh Comely Magazine. A few months ago Lorraine was talking to Agatha Nitecka the Fashion Editor of the magazines – they decided to colloborate on a project and the result was an exclusive run of ethically sourced organic cotton bags.
The bags are available online and through our boutique.
Win up to five hundred pounds, yes FIVE HUNDRED POUNDS worth of PYRUS AW11 clothing in our amazing Christmas competition with Oh Comely magazine. All you have to do to take part is find your favourite mug (we all have one!) whether it holds a special memory, or you just love the design of it, there may just even be a funky one laying around the office..
