Their homeware, stationary and accessory range aims to celebrate the beauty of South Africa's diverse fauna & flora Cape Flora and to bring nature indoors. 

Ethically produced: the items are locally made in South Africa. The wonderful family behind CoralBloom has always had a heart driven passion and synergistic dynamic where they love bringing together everyone's unique skills. Founder Michelle has a background in Botany and is a self-taught artist and designer. The naturalist paintings fusing traditional and modernist watercolor designs are her mother's and sister's creations, who are both self-taught artists.

Eco-friendly: CoralBloom ensures that materials and suppliers are sourced locally and only works with printers who use eco-friendly water-based inks and energy-saving equipment. Their range is currently available in pure cotton and hemp. To prevent wastage, they keep a few items in stock and have digital catalogues so that products are made on demand. Layouts for printing are meticulously planned to minimize offcuts and wastage.

Good cause: CoralBloom has committed to donating 5% of the sales to YouStartSmarter, a dedicated study fund enabling tuition and other educational oportunities to be awarded to deserving high school students who would otherwise be denied access.
