Knepp 'Emperor Butterfly' Lavender Bag Purple
Emperor butterflies are just one of the many endangered species who have benefitted from Knepp’s rewilding programme, their numbers having exploded over the last decade.
This small but perfectly formed pouch bag containing locally sourced lavender is made from organic cotton. Decorated with an original illustration of a purple Emperor butterfly, each one is beautifully embellished by hand with French knots.
This hand-embellished lavender bag is part of our Knepp Rewilding collection, imagined by Knepp's design lead, Lia Brazier, and stitched in prison by Fine Cell Work stitchers.
The Knepp Rewilding Project in Sussex was co-founded by the pioneering Isabella Tree, the daughter of Fine Cell Work's founder Lady Anne Tree, and the collection, inspired by the creatures roaming the estate, celebrates our rich history together.

Knepp Rewilding
Fine Cell Work and Knepp are threaded together through family legacy and vision. The revolutionary Knepp rewilding project, a 3,500-acre estate in Sussex, was co-founded by Isabella Tree, the daughter of Fine Cell Work’s founder, Lady Anne Tree.
Inspired by Knepp’s extraordinary rebounding wildlife and stitched by hand in UK prisons, the collaboration features original illustrations by Knepp's designer, Lia Brazier. Represented in the collection are species which play a vital part in the rewilding project at Knepp: beavers, white storks, turtle doves and Exmoor ponies.
The collection is available exclusively from Knepp's Wilding Kitchen & Shop, and the Fine Cell Work website.

By giving prisoners hope that transformation is truly possible, they can envision a meaningful life after release. But nobody tells the story of how Fine Cell Work has helped them better than the prisoners themselves:
“Stitching allows me to use a totally different part of my brain and personality. I can move away from the more difficult reflections and anxieties and feel creative and purposeful. This means I no longer feel that my life has come to a halt and that I am of no use to anyone else.”- Tom, FCW Stitcher -
