Gift Focus - Sep/Oct 2019 (Issue 115)

99 AUTUMN FAIR PREVIEW AGNES + CAT Stand: 6H13 agnesandcat.org Agnes + Cat was created in the beautiful Lake District, the land of William Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter. The Lakes have always played a part in the world of creativity and retail brands. That’s where the company started designing its iconic range of candles, cosmetic and bath products, getting inspired by the surrounding nature and scents. All of the cosmetics, reed diffusers and soaps are handmade in small batches in the company’s production unit in Sheffield and scented with the best of British fine fragrances; the candles are hand-poured using British fragrances, Indonesian soy wax and cotton wicks. Agnes + Cat tries its best to help the planet by packing light, recycling and sourcing locally wherever possible. Many lines are able to be repurposed after use, and the packaging can either be recycled or reused. The company is committed to make the best possible products and takes time to source the right materials and ingredients to go into its products, from certified sustainable palm oil soap, which is overseen by the WWF, to only using natural soy wax. Products are vegan-friendly, not tested on animals and handmade.
