About

Bawn was established in Glasgow in 2020 by Bevan O'Daly, an Irish textile specialist with a background in fine art and textile conservation. The shop began its life online but quickly found a brick and mortar home on Pollokshaws Road in 2021 where it has been a proud resident ever since.

At its heart, Bawn’s ambition is to help bridge the gap between the growing sustainable textile supply chain and the home sewer. By sourcing responsibly, Bawn hopes to provide customers with beautiful fabrics and haberdashery while also promoting change in an industry known for its outsized impact on people and planet.
