Melanie Molesworth Author

Melanie Molesworth and Julia Bird met in London while both working as interiors stylists. They shared love of the sea and eventually moved to Dorset and Cornwall, respectively, on the south coast of England. This life change led them to the forgotten art of seaweed pressing and as their skills improved, the design company Molesworth & Bird was born. Today their art prints, cards, calendars, enamelware and tea towels are sold around the world. They run a successful online store, a small retail shop in Lyme Regis and a studio workshop in Cornwall.
