About the Business
After studying fine art together for 4yrs we decided we wanted to use our creative side to start our own business. After a few months hand-making all of our own products to sell at fairs and online we realised there was just not enough hours in the day to do it all ourselves. Our first market stall was in our home town of Leek in the trestle market and we soon expanded to Bakewell, Chesterfield and Newcastle-under-lyme. We also had stalls at a range of craft fairs where we met some lovely people and more stockists!
Markets were a great way to start a business, we had soon expanded our ranges and had a loyal customer base but gosh it was hard work! In late 2009 a small unit had become available in the quaint 'Getliffes Yard' based in Leek, we took the plunge and 'Bibelot' was born! For those wondering where our name came from - our Mum is an avid book reader and is a fan of the 'Mapp and Lucia' series of novels by E. F. Benson.
