Stories | People | Collectables

Travel enables us to join the dots, to discover the interconnectedness of everyone and everything. We travel to learn about our world and her people, and in doing so, we begin to discover who we are.

Wanderlust Collectables is a family-run business that is inspired by our love for our planet and its diverse and fascinating people. It is driven by our belief in the innate ability of humans from every corner of the globe to create art and beauty in everyday objects. We have a keen appreciation of travel, as this enables us to share with you artisan and unusual products and captivating stories from the places we visit.

Beautiful Colours and Patterns

Block Printed Cotton Rugs

The textile art of woodblock printing is the process of printing patterns on textiles – usually on linen, cotton or silk – by means of incised wooden blocks. It is the earliest, simplest and slowest of all methods of textile printing. Block printing by hand is a labour-intensive process. It is, however, capable of yielding highly artistic results, some of which are unobtainable by any other method. Wanderlust Collectables stocks a beautiful range of hand stitched, block printed cotton quilts that are guaranteed to add texture, character and colour to your home.  The colours come from vegetable dyes which give them a unique organic beauty. They have the ability to complement modern or classic homes and due to their very generous size, the quilts can be used in various ways.

“Perhaps travel cannot prevent bigotry, but by demonstrating that all peoples cry, laugh, eat, worry, and die, it can introduce the idea that if we try and understand each other, we may even become friends.” – Maya Angelou
