“we'll see if one tree won't grow as crooked as another, with the same wind to twist it!”
-Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights
Please note orders including this kit will be dispatched from February 18th
One of the world's most passionate and enduring love stories Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë truly stands the test of time. Moody, melancholic yet magnificently romantic, the love story of Cathy & Heathcliff is a work of great literature and a story for the ages.
Ahead of the release of Emerald Fennell’s ‘‘Wuthering Heights’’, Hand & Lock (like the rest of the world!) is well and truly embracing the hype.
Like Emerald’s reimagined ‘’Wuthering Heights’’, we have imagined our own hand embroidery kit inspired by the film's visuals and the original book.
Embroidered onto a muted green base, ‘The Wuthering Tree’ kit depicts a crooked tree trunk with twisted branches and falling leaves, embroidered in silk shading and goldwork techniques.
Hearts stem from the tree's roots in a bold red which is heavily featured in the film. Brontë's sister and fellow novelist Charlotte once described the book ‘as wild and knotty as the root of heather’.
Swirling winds and icy raindrops surround the tree in a metallic silver thread and silver bullions.
The Initials ‘H+C’ are ‘carved’ into the trunk, reminiscent of Cathy carving names into the woodwork of her window ledge at Wuthering Heights House.
Personalise your kit with your own initials and those of your beloved.
This embroidery kit comes with a printed base fabric to work on. Inside our signature H&L kit tin you will find needles, threads and all the goldwork bullions required to complete the design, along with a helpful instruction booklet.
