"The passing of Her Majesty The Queen last Thursday has been a source of grief across the nation, the world and the entire team at Designers Guild.
As holders of the Queens Award for Export, manufacturers of the Royal Collection fabrics and wallpapers as well as our founder, Tricia Guild, being honoured with an OBE we, like so many, feel a close association with the Royal Household.
The nation is now readying itself for The Queen’s State Funeral on Monday 19th September and as a mark of our respect, we will be closing our company and pausing delivery on the day of the Funeral. We will reopen on Tuesday 20th September with teams coming in specially to catch up on all orders received over the weekend and bank holiday.
We send our warm wishes and greatest sympathies to King Charles III and to the Royal Family. And I would like to extend this message to all our customers and colleagues during a time for reflection and gratitude for the life of Queen Elizabeth II."
