Studio Hours:
Wednesday-Sunday 10am-5pm
In 2013 Leanne Shea Rhem returned to Toronto from a whirlwind tour around the world learning traditional textile techniques and studying various forms of art. This is when Leanne founded Gold & Ginger and began developing patterns and surface designs for accessories, fashion and stationery. These designs were inspired by an ongoing collaborative watercolou
r and pen and ink illustration series with her partner, Zac Kenny. Coming from a textiles background Leanne has been sewing, designing and drawing for as long as she can remember. She now serves as owner, creative director and maker at Gold & Ginger. Her product line is a labour of love combining her interests in animals, colour, pattern and urban environments. Leanne has a commitment to bring well made, thoughtfully designed, quality items to the market place and practices a collaborative approach to design where she enlists the help of artist Zac Kenny. Everything is designed and sewn by hand in Picton, Prince Edward County where the couple now lives.
