  • The ‘ESBE Guarantee’ applies to handmade quilts only.

    While your quilt should last a lifetime with proper care, the ESBE Guarantee ensures that for the first 5 years, if your ESBE quilt experiences any extended loose threads or seam issues, we'll mend it at no charge. While customers cover shipping costs, our guarantee underscores our confidence in our handcrafted quality and commitment to longevity.

    The ESBE Guarantee does not cover any fabric rips or quilt damage due to normal wear or rough usage (ex. animal scratching, rips from improper machine washing, bleaching, or sun damage).

  • At ESBE, we champion the 'slow-drop model'. Given the intricate craftsmanship and the fact that our founder is the sole artisan, we often release our products in exclusive, limited batches. Remarkably, most items in our slow-drop releases are singular, one-off creations — once they're gone, they're truly irreplaceable. To gain early access to these exclusive drops, we encourage you to subscribe to our newsletter.

    Additionally, our made-to-order offerings enable us to gauge and match demand accurately, ensuring we produce only what our discerning customers desire. This approach champions patience and sustainability. Good things take time, and indeed, the best things come to those who wait and value conscientious consumption.

  • The pricing of quilts reflects a combination of factors that ensure you're receiving a product of the highest quality:

    Time-Intensive Craftsmanship: Each quilt is a culmination of hours of labor (16-30+), with some taking days or even weeks to complete, especially if they're handcrafted.

    High-Quality Materials: Premium fabrics and batting not only enhance the quilt's feel and durability but also come at a higher cost compared to standard materials.

    Unique Designs: Original and bespoke designs often require more time in planning, designing, and execution, adding to the overall cost.

    Specialized Skills: Quilting is a craft that takes years to master. The expertise of skilled artisans, who bring intricate designs to life, is factored into the quilt's price.

    Wage Ethics: Ethically paying fair wages to ensure sustainable and responsible production naturally incur a higher cost.

    Limited Production: As many quilts, especially handcrafted ones, are not mass-produced, they don't benefit from economies of scale, leading to a higher per-item cost.

    In essence, when purchasing a quilt, especially from artisans or specialized shops, you're investing in a piece of art, a story, and a tradition, all of which are woven together by skilled hands.

  • Each quilt I create isn't just a product; it's a labor of love, imbued with immense care and intricate detailing. Much like bringing a new life into the world, the passion and devotion I pour into every quilt feels as though I've birthed a new entity. As a testament to this deep connection, every quilt is honored with a human name, reflecting its unique identity and the special place it holds in the ESBE family. Just as a parent names their child, I name each quilt, signifying its individual story and the love with which it was crafted.

  • To ensure the longevity and beauty of your ESBE quilt, follow these guidelines:

    Washing: Hand wash or use a gentle machine wash cycle with cold water. Use a mild detergent, preferably one designed for delicate fabrics or quilts. Use the color absorbing sheet provided in your order for the first wash to ensure no stray color wanders.

    Drying: Lay the quilt flat to air dry. If using a dryer, opt for a low heat or air fluff setting. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent color fading.

    Ironing/Steaming: ESBE quilts can be ironed or steamed to remove deeper set wrinkles. Check your authenticity card for material composition and follow your irons material settings. Most wrinkles can be removed from a quick tumble in the dryer on fluff/low.

    Folding: Follow the folding instructions provided below to minimize crease lines in your quilt and ready it for storage.

    Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. If storing for extended periods, place it in a breathable cotton bag or wrap in a cotton sheet to prevent yellowing or fabric degradation.

    General Care: Rotate and refold your quilt occasionally to prevent creases or wear along the same lines. Avoid placing heavy objects on the quilt to maintain its shape and loft.

    Regularly checking and lightly shaking your quilt can help maintain its fluffiness and ensure even wear. Remember, with proper care, your quilt will remain a cherished piece for years to come.

  • An authenticity card is a testament to the singular artistry and heritage of each ESBE quilt. Born from our passion to blend commercial artistry with functional design, every quilt we craft is accompanied by its own unique authenticity card which furnishes details such as the quilt's name, provenance, dimensions, materials, and the techniques employed. Crucially, it bears a distinct identification code exclusive to that individual quilt. Given the bespoke, one-off nature of our designs, we regard each quilt with the reverence accorded to fine art. Envisioned to be heirlooms, these quilts are intended to journey through generations, and the accompanying authenticity card safeguards their rich narrative, lineage and value.

Seal of Authenticity

With each ESBE quilt comes an Authenticity Card — a simple affirmation of its unique lineage. This card notes its name, materials, techniques, and a singular identification code. With ESBE, every quilt carries its own narrative, quietly preserved for generations.
