About Bear & Lion




The Story of The Bear & Lion Co.
Growing up in California, I was immersed in a lifestyle that celebrated the outdoors, sunshine, and a relaxed, eco-conscious way of living. From sunny days at the beach to hiking and camping trips, nature was always a big part of my life. California style, with its modern, carefree spirit, influenced my creativity, and I spent countless hours sewing dresses and clutches, enjoying the joy of crafting something unique and beautiful. When I discovered a fabric that was destined for landfill, I felt inspired to give it a new life, turning waste into something both functional and stylish.
My journey took an unexpected turn when I moved to England. There, I fell in love with the English style, which stood in contrast to my Californian roots. English design reflects timeless tradition and sophistication, with a layered aesthetic tied to heritage and practicality. It resonated with me deeply, offering a sense of history and craftsmanship that felt rich and enduring.
The fusion of these two worlds—California’s laid-back, nature-inspired creativity and England’s timeless elegance—became the foundation for my business. I wanted to create products that combined the best of both styles, celebrating sustainability, individuality, and the stories that fabrics and designs can tell. This passion drives everything I create, blending two cultures into something uniquely beautiful.
