For the women who read in the bath, at the bus stop and long past midnight. Who have opinions about endings, a pile on the bedside table and a friend they ring the minute they finish something good.
This is our edit for the readers. Books by women who rewrote the stories, gifts to read with, and things to wear that say it out loud.
Wear it on your hands
Our Book Worm Mittens say exactly what they mean in playful intarsia. Knitted in Scotland from soft merino lambswool, they’re the ones readers and booksellers keep coming back for. Fingerless, so you can still turn the page.
On the shelf
Hag retells forgotten folktales from our isles in voices that bite. Rebel Folklore gathers the darkest, most complicated women from tales around the world. Feminism for a World on Fire and End Times Fascism are for when you want to be stirred up. To the Women is for when you want to be held. And Unmanageable Revolutionaries tells how Irish women were always at the heart of the fight.
For the reading nook
A Damn Rebel Bitch mug for the tea that goes cold. A bar of UP-UP sea salt chocolate for the last chapter. Feminist Pencils for underlining the good bits, and a hand-painted Pride & Prejudice claw clip to hold your hair back while you do.
For the writers and planners
Desk pads and the 2027 Year Planner from Crispin Finn, and the Ransom Note Sticker Book for anyone who still makes zines.
Let customers speak for us
Fabulous suit for fabulous women
This suit is so well made and the design is a great fit on me (size 12 in most things (32E bra) and got a size 2 suit). Fabric is soft and flexible but feels strong and made to last. Feels lovely to be swimming in the ladies pond on Hampstead Heath in such a stylish, feminist suit. Thank you B and B x

Happy wife!
My wife showed me this jumper and said she would love it. I waited 5 months for it to come back in stock and bought it for her as a surprise. She is absolutely over the moon with it. She loves the jumper and wears it at every opportunity. It isn’t a cheap garment, but you get what you pay for and it is about what it stands for! Thank you Black & Beech.

The sisterhood!
I am in LOVE with my t-shirt! The fit is fantastic, and my best friend has matching in white, so we can look the bees knees together. Beautifully made, great quality! Thank you

Just fabulous
Bought this recently in the sale, it’s just absolutely beautiful, such a poignant message, the ethics that have gone into making it and the design process. I’ve been purchasing from Stacey for years and honestly the quality and design of everything is incredible ♥️

I love it!
This is by far the most excited I've been about a cargigan. I simply love it! It's soft, light, and the fit is great. It will keep me the right level of balmy and badass all year round.
Also a shoutout to their wonderful customer service, who helped trace the parcel when my local postal service momentarily lost track of it. Will definetely be buying from them again (and again, probably)!

I love my hat!
I waited for this hat to come back in stock and in the meantime, forgot that I’d ordered it. What a gorgeous surprise when it arrived! I love it so much and I’ve had so many compliments. Thank you for making such achingly cool stuff B&B!

A Gorgeous Gift
I saw a woman in Manchester wearing the “No Grit No Pearl” top. When I asked her where she got it, she kindly gave me the Black & Beech website. I ordered the T-shirt which arrived just in time for IWD2026 and my wife was delighted with the quality, colour and fit. She’s already had more than one compliment on it out and about! Love it!

Great Shirt!
I love the shirt in every way: it’s good, sturdy quality; the length and of course the SUPERB message!

Two great scarves
I ordered two Liberté scarves - one for me and one as a gift for a friend and the quality and softness is outstanding. I love the border contrast. Packaging was great, and arrived quickly to the USA. So happy to support a woman focused business and natural fibers :)

Beautiful item, great customer care!
My sister was heartbroken at losing her original 'This Too Shall Pass' necklace. I told her to stop worrying because these things always turn up. Of course, I didn't believe my own words and intended for said necklace to show up in the post as a replacement :)
But it showed up, a day after placing a replacement order, but I have zero regrets because now we have matching necklaces that are beautiful, meaningful, and will always remind us that even disappointments will pass!
