A contributor post by Andrea from Lotus Events / Got Craft?
With my love for kitchen items and pretty, functional things for the home, I can truly say that Labour and Wait is one of my favourite shops in London. Situated in the heart of East London’s market district just off of Brick Lane, Labour and Wait opened in 2000 by Simon Watkins and Rachel Wythe Moran. From hardware to clothing, their philosophy is to select timeless products that celebrate functional design that will never be out of date. They seek makers from around the world that share the same aesthetic.
I’m swooning over the enamel kitchen bowls and coffee pots and the bath and body products from Couto in Portugal – just look at that packaging!
Labour and Wait, 85 Redchurch Street, London E2 7DJ
