Manchester is a city that was built on the cotton industry, and nicknamed Cottonopolis during the 19th Century. Mills were commonly described as ‘hives of activity’and the workers inside them compared to bees.

Manchester claimed the bee as her symbol because she is an industrious little grafter, individually insignificant but collectively a superorganism. "Together we are stronger." 

At 70s House Manchester we produce our tea towels ethically, locally in Lancashire in small batches to reduce our environmental impact. We use a family factory specialising in bespoke cotton textile products since 1918. The knowledge and skills passed down from generation to generation are key to this artisan craft. 

Here at the heart of 70s House Manchester you’ll find products inspired by the nostalgia for the 60s and 70s. Designs which work equally individually or together to create a fun, bold and playful interior scheme for the retro and modern home.  We pride ourselves on delivering a collection of luxury wallpapers, fabrics and home accessories, with love, and integrity.
