コーラル＆タスクについて

Coral & Tusk's mission is to delight and inspire through purposefully designed, long-lasting products for the home.

Our Story

Coral & Tusk はテキスタイルデザイナーのステファニー・ハウズリーが2007年にニューヨーク、ブルックリンで立ち上げた刺繍のブランドです。ステファニーがデザインする、旅や自然、動物などから多大なインスピレーションを受けた、ストーリー性のある刺繍が特徴です。Coralとはサンゴの事。そしてTuskとはイッカクの事。どちらも陸と海に生息する、幸福のシンボルです。この2つに見合う美しいものを Coral & Tusk を通して表現し、つくりたいという思いからブランド名を決めました。

"We always try to have an element of surprise so that there's a continued story to tell.
Each of our pieces is about discovery."

Our Founder

ステファニーはアメリカ合衆国オハイオ州生まれ。レース編みが得意な曾祖母、もの作りの楽しさを教えてくれた祖母や母らの影響で、ステファニーは物心ついた時から描くことと刺繍が大好きでした。いつもバックの中には刺繍糸と布切れを入れて持ち歩き、暇さえあれば動物や植物を描き、刺繍をしました。高校を卒業後、Rhode Island School of Design (RISD)で機織とテキスタイルデザインを学び、RISD卒業後は専攻を生かし、インテリアのテキスタイルデザイナーとして15年活躍。その時期にインドの工場を何度も訪れ、ディテールにこだわった刺繍、裁断、縫製の作業を共に取り組みました。2007年テキスタイルデザイナーとして働く傍、幼い頃から趣味として続けていた刺繍を主にしたCoral & Tuskを設立。

2016年パートナーのChrisと共に長年住み続けたブルックリンからワイオミング州に住居を移します。ワイオミング州は大自然と野生動物に恵まれた美しい州。ステファニーが幼少期から憧れていた特別な場所です。そんな大好きな自然と動物達に囲まれた環境から、ステファニーは Coral & Tusk の世界観を発信しています。

A fascination with home and habitat informs every design Coral & Tusk creates, from finding inspiration

in how a bowerbird builds his nest to considering what keepsakes we surround ourselves with in our own dwellings.

Our love of homes also extends to the big picture of caring for our planet.

Our Values

Coral & Tusk is an independently owned, woman-run business. We provide a full benefits package and living wages to our small team in the United States and have built strong and lasting relationships with our production partners in India.

Our pillow inserts are cruelty free, and the majority of our linen is unbleached and undyed, this avoids pollutants and reduces water consumption. We believe in giving back and regularly donate to nonprofits committed to social and environmental change. Visit our Charitable Contributions page for more information.

Our Process

Every collection begins with abundant research, drawing from a wide variety of inspiration.

Step 1. Start with a story.

Stephanie first creates her irreverent characters and bold pattern designs by putting pencil to paper. Every collection begins with abundant research, and each individual design stems from her original hand-drawn illustrations.

Step 2. Drawing to Digital.

Stephanie then scans her original drawing, creating a digital file. She redraws the design, stitch by stitch, using specialized software.

Step 3. Connecting threads.

Once her designs are digitized, Stephanie connects with our partners in India to begin production. Together they work to perfect each design, finalizing layouts and colors. Our partners in India implement ethical working conditions and provide fair wages.

Step 4. Bring it to life.

Once the design is perfected, it is machine embroidered in India by our embroidery partner of over ten years. The large scale embroidery machines make it possible for us to scale Stephanie’s creative process with the flexibility of small production runs.

Step 5. From fiber to cloth.

Nearly all of our products are embroidered on 100% unbleached and undyed linen, avoiding the pollutants found in standard textile dyeing practices and reducing water consumption. Our linen begins as a flax plant in Lithuania and is then wet spun into yarn at an ISO 9001 company in West Bengal, India, before arriving in Bangalore, India for weaving. All of our linen fiber is Oeko-Tex Standard 100 Certified, confirming that it does not contain any harmful substances or chemicals.

Step 6. Stitch it up.

Sewing is the final step of our production process. Every Coral & Tusk embroidery is transformed into the final product by our long-time tailors who expertly hem and stitch every piece for you to enjoy in your home.
