A gift in bloom

Volume 22 (Flower), Spring 2026
In celebration of spring and House and Leisure Volume 22 (Flower), we’ve joined Evolution Product to share a little something with our new subscribers
To mark the bloom of spring and the arrival of House and Leisure Volume 22 (Flower), every new subscriber will receive a complimentary Evolution towel. Each towel was over-dyed by hand in new summer colours, inspired by the flowers found in Amanda’s garden: the acid yellow blooms of the Cat’s Tail , the bright red flowers of the succulent Kleina, the pink hues of Fairy Crassula, and the delicate blooms of Euphorbia oblongata. Our gift to you, and a little something to mark the new season and an edition dedicated to all things in flower
Evolution creates narratives through textiles, with each piece speaking to history, place, nature and time – every piece telling a story of heritage and craftsmanship. The Lichen, Mopipi and Nemastoma towels are woven from a blend of cotton and linen, created to bring beauty and function into everyday life. Versatile and timeless, they can serve as tea towels, Heritage doeks, or napkins – moving with ease between kitchen, table, and bathroom as a piece for every occasion. A cloth that becomes part of your rituals, your celebrations and the rhythms of home.

Evolution is grounded in founder Amanda du Plessis’s vision to create homeware that carries the soul of unique biospheres and protected cultures around the world. Through heartfelt collaboration and sincere connection, they craft textiles that reflect history, place and time, weaving together stories of nature, culture and people to ensure every product carries meaning. True to the belief that design must create a positive impact, Evolution embraces sustainable materials and processes wherever possible, supports local industry and contributes financially to the natural biospheres and cultural custodians that inspire its work.

Subscribe to the next four editions of House and Leisure to receive your complimentary Evolution towel worth R535 – while stocks last.
