Holland & Sherry
London, Savile Row · since 1836
The cloth of Savile Row
Since 1836 the London house has brought the best of the British wool
tradition to the world’s most prestigious tailors.
In 1836 Stephen George Holland and Frederick Sherry opened a wool and silk business at 10 Old Bond Street. In 1886 they moved to Golden Square, then the heart of London’s wool trade: of all the merchants established there in the late nineteenth century, Holland & Sherry is the only one still trading. Since 1982 its head office has been on Savile Row.
From the warehouse in Peebles, in the Scottish Borders, English worsteds and Scottish tweeds leave for tailors all over the world. Research pushes towards ever finer and rarer fibres: from Super 240’s wools to cashmere and pure worsted vicuña.
