Walter G is an Australian-owned boutique textile house founded in 2012 by best friends Lauren Emerson and Genevieve Hewson. With a mutual love of textiles they found themselves living in India for 6 months in tiny and remote villages completely immersed, learning everything they could about the block printing process. Upon returning to Australia, sadly both of their grandfathers Walter and George passed at a similar time. Walter G is named in their honor.
Lauren and Genevieve believe strongly in maintaining a hands on approach within the business, traveling to India annually and staying true to their passion for the hand block printing process. All Walter G fabrics are designed in-house, taking inspiration from old textiles and new surroundings. These designs are brought to life by a wonderful team of artisans in India. Channeling the relaxed vibe of coastal living, through pattern, fresh color, texture and nostalgia ā Walter Gās fabrics are designed to be mixed and matched to create a one of a kind room aesthetic.
Walter G outdoor fabrics are 100% solution dyed acrylic, in creating and inspiring designs meant to mix and match.
