Founding two brothers who traveled the world collecting rare textiles, purchasing historic printing blocks, and building what has become one of the largest and most celebrated privately owned textile archives on earth — that is the origin story of GP & J Baker, and it is a story that still shapes every fabric the brand produces today. Established in 1884 by George and James Percival Baker and holder of the Royal Warrant since 1982 — now renewed by His Majesty King Charles III — GP & J Baker enjoys an international reputation for delivering magnificent fabrics exceptional in quality and creative innovation. Distributed in North America through Kravet, the world's leading to-the-trade home furnishings house, GP & J Baker indoor fabrics carry the full authority of over 140 years of British textile excellence, bringing depth, character, and the richness of a truly extraordinary archive to interiors that deserve nothing less. Decorative trim and wallcovering are also provided by this luxury brand.
The GP & J Baker indoor fabric collection is vast, diverse, and consistently distinguished, spanning upholstery, drapery, embroidery, and multipurpose applications across prints, wovens, velvets, linens, chenilles, bouclés, and specialty constructions. At the heritage core, the Burford collection offers stunning archive-inspired embroideries of enduring classical character, while collections such as Eldon — featuring iconic prints, stripes, and ikats — and the Originals Brantwood series celebrate the Arts and Crafts aesthetic in richly recolored palettes. The velvet offering is particularly celebrated: the Coniston Velvet collection spans 22 colors from vibrant brights to elegant neutrals, while Court Velvet brings a luxurious sheen and elegant drape to upholstery and curtains. Designer collaborations with Kit Kemp have produced multiple chapters of joyous, eclectic prints, embroideries, and artisanal woven stripes that bring a fresh, colorful personality to the brand's broader classical offering. The Canton collection adds further contemporary elegance with painterly florals, detailed stitchwork, and a striking Indienne block print suited to both town and country interiors.
