About French & Wilder
French & Wilder is an independent shop on Market Place in Hexham offering a curated collection of French-inspired homeware, fashion and gifts. The brand blends the rustic charm of the French countryside with a touch of Parisian style, and many of its designs are inspired by vintage pieces discovered at French markets and antique fairs. It trades both from its town-centre store and through an online shop, emphasising artisanal craftsmanship and ethical sourcing.
The range spans cushions, tea towels and soft furnishings, clothing and accessories such as scarves, bags and jewellery, and gifts including greetings cards and aprons. It also offers fragrances, scented candles and wax melts that are hand-poured in Hexham. The shop's collections and interiors have been featured in publications including Country Living, Living North, the Hexham Courant and Condé Nast Traveller.
