Being obsessed with all things tailoring including all manner of textures, colours and designs of fabrics, different threads and stitches, all of which can make or break a piece of clothing, has for a long while led me to appreciate the very best in in the word of fabrics! We all love fabric. We chose our clothes based not just on our budget but on our feelings and originality of the piece and it’s how we express our individuality.

We also seek out the finest fabrics in our homes be it our curtains, sofas, bedding, carpet – it’s literally everywhere and we choose what we choose for a reason. Individual style and panache – and hey, why not!

I have been given a fabulous opportunity to acquire as much knowledge in relation to a different field of fabrics which I have never really been involved in. Fabrics for the great outside, yachts, gardens, hotels, cafes, pubs, clubs, country

The helm - arguably the favourite part of a boat for any true yachtsman. If the helm is the key area on board a yacht, then what is the most important item at the helm? Surely that’s the steering wheel?

The sensations of piloting a large yacht on the plane or ripping through the chop in a fast RIB are all felt in your hands through the wheel. Whether it is a hand stitched leather and stainless-steel item, or a practical PU product, the wheel’s design and feel are paramount to a user’s experience.

Here at Timage, we have been proud to represent the finest marine steering wheel manufacturer for a number of years. Gussi Italia manufacture some beautiful styles and feature as the original equipment
