Tucked away in the idyllic surrounds of northern Washington, Victoria conjures up designs, but the company’s creative team extends across the world. In 2015, Victoria first visited Crown Linen Design’s artisans in Ukraine. As the company flourished, Victoria returned many times over the years, forging relationships with employees who feel more like friends. “Our factories are mostly small family businesses run by the most talented, dedicated, creative, and resilient people you will ever meet,” she says. With the addition of Arte Italica’s Italian style, Victoria often pulls inspiration and ideas from team members in Ukraine and Italy, and the company brims with a signature European elegance.
