As part of our 5th birthday celebrations, we're celebrating the shop and

Llandeilo's past with these three exclusive tea towels!



Tobacconist



This tea towel uses a photo of our grandparents from the 1950's and is fond

memory for many of when the shop was a tobacconist and hairdressers run by our

grandparents. The premises have been owned by our family as far back as 1905!



Llandilo Bridge



Nope it's not a spelling mistake! Llandeilo was spelt 'Llandilo' for

centuries until it changed to Llandeilo by royal decree, making it alot more

apparent that it's named after St. Teilo. This tea towel features a licensed

photo from the D.C. Harries collection, who was a photographer in Llandilo and

had premises on the same street as our shop.



Morris & Sons Painting



This tea towel is part of an oil painting that was done by local welsh

artist, James Anthony. James is extremely talented and this work really

captures a feel of how the shop would have been 'back in the day'. We're lucky

to have the original piece, and it can be viewed at the shop. You'll often find

James' work on exhibition at the Oriel Mimosa gallery, just a couple of doors

down from our shop.
