Tessuti is a homewares and gift shop at 224 Jervois Road in Herne Bay, on the corner with Albany Road. The shop describes itself as a selection it has built piece by piece, sourced locally and from abroad. Its Living range covers handcrafted ceramics, textiles, furniture and smaller objects for the home, and its Dining range covers hand-blown glassware, French linens, ceramic tableware and candles for the table.
The shop stocks the Slow brand, which the website says is handcrafted in Tuscany using traditional techniques. Other lines include the French ceramics house Astier de Villatte, and the Clarabelle wine glass, a hand-blown piece that the website says varies a little in shape from glass to glass. Notebooks from the Libri Multi range are also listed. The website has a journal and a shipping and returns page, and it accepts online orders. For a Herne Bay shopper looking for a gift or a considered piece for the table, the range of hand-made pieces is the practical reason to visit.
