The Amitié Story
House of Amitié is the vision of lifelong friends Angela Bush and Jemma Lewis.
Having met aged 13 in secondary school and both having a passion for Art & Design we are delighted to share our love for all things interiors, pattern, colour and marbling with you!
The word 'Amitié' (pronounced "a mee tyay" ) means friendship, which is at the heart of our company.
Angela studied Interior Textile Design at Wolverhampton University and went on to hold a career in Buying for a period of 20 years in London, specialising in Footwear & Accessories for various UK fashion brands. Post Pandemic it was time for a re-think and move back to Wiltshire to be closer to family and her best friend Jemma.
Jemma has been a full time professional Paper Marbler for over 14 years. Having studied Textile Art at Norwich School of Art & Design, the route to becoming a Paper Marbler was a serendipitous one, taken via a traditional bookbinders, who frequently used marbled papers inside historic marbled tomes, that the bookbinders were tasked to repair. Having worked with many high end clients, it has been a long awaited dream to create a range of printed marbled patterned wallpapers and fabrics.
We look forward to sharing our obsession with Marbling with you all, and hope you love our collections as much as we do!
Amitiés,
Angela & Jemma
