BURBERRY PARTNERSHIP WITH
NEW CRAFTSMEN AT THOMAS'S
This Christmas, Burberry continues
its partnership with The New Craftsmen.
Situated at Thomas's, Burberry's all-day
dining and gifting destination at 5 Vigo
Street, the collaboration will celebrate
British craft and creativity through a
unique calendar of events, activities
and exclusive products.
The programme features Britain's
finest makers creating bespoke products
within the space, including embroidered
linen table napkins, hand knitted
Christmas stockings, tassels,
personalised wrapping paper and
archive gabardine customisation.
These activities will be set against
Thomas’s updated interior, designed in
close collaboration with The New
Craftsmen to include new fixtures, spaces
and a refreshed private dining area.
Burberry artisans will showcase their
craft in both the Thomas's space and the
newly created personalisation areas
within the Burberry 121 Regent Street
store. The Lantern Room and the Gallery
at the Burberry flagship will see scarf
calligraphy, leather hand painting and
wreath customisation experiences
offered during a series of special events
throughout the festive period.
On 1 December, Thomas’s will host
an evening with guest Chef, Daniel
Smith. The five course menu inspired by
the best of British seasonal produce, will
include Scottish Langoustine, Cornish
Bass, Hereford Beef and a Peasant Broth
with Honey Tart to finish, accompanied
by British Sea Salt Caramels.
