Epoch

Epoch is a handmade woven textiles brand, primarily producing rugs using surplus British wool. You can find us in our Margate studio.

Epoch Textiles designs and hand weaves bespoke rugs using surplus wool from UK suppliers. Founded in 2019 by Sophie Reeves, the aim is to marry traditional techniques with contemporary design using striking colours and modern patterns and explore different forms and functions for textiles in modern homes & living. Each rug is made on a traditional floor loom in the our studio in Margate, creating one-off pieces on a collection and commissioned basis.

“With Epoch Textiles, founder and textile designer Sophie Reeves is seeking new creative freedoms within the hand-weaving tradition. Pushing the craft’s female-driven history into the future, her Modernist rugs take an abstract approach, seen in vibrant colours and bold, graphic forms.” Liberty London
