About Liberty

Founded in 1875, Liberty has evolved from Arthur Lasenby Liberty's vision of bringing exceptional craftsmanship and design from around the world to the heart of London into one of the world's most iconic retail brands. Renowned for its distinctive approach to curation, creativity and innovation, the business has played an influential role in shaping design and cultural trends for nearly 150 years, establishing a reputation that extends far beyond its retail roots.

At the centre of the brand is Liberty's landmark Great Marlborough Street store, a heritage-listed London icon that reflects the company's rich history and commitment to craftsmanship. Designed to create an inspiring and immersive customer experience, the store continues to serve as a destination for discovery, bringing together carefully curated collections, emerging talent and established makers from across the globe.

Today, Liberty remains recognised for its unique blend of heritage and contemporary design. Its in-house design studio continues to draw inspiration from an extensive archive of more than 45,000 prints and artworks, reinterpreting them for modern audiences while supporting the brand's reputation for originality, creativity and exceptional product design.
