What inspired you to create your brand? Ed Hammond comes from a long line of Master Slate Craftsmen whose traditional techniques and values have been passed lovingly from father to son since the beginning of the 18th Century. For generations the Hammond family have been renowned all over Ireland for roofing some of the country’s most iconic buildings.Inspired by the natural beauty of slate, I saw the potential to create refined slate homeware. Together we created a fresh cut slate table runner for our home and this sparked an enduring interest and passion to utilise the beauty of slate in the home and henceforth SLATED was born. All pieces are made using artisan techniques and methods, each piece meticulously handcrafted with a precious family heirloom, a 150-year-old Slater’s Knife that has been passed from generation to generation of Hammonds.
