Custom souvenirs and devotional goods for Canterbury Cathedral
Pilgrims leaving Canterbury Cathedral want something that could only come from there. We design that something for shops at the shrine and for the groups who travel to it: products drawn from the place, made in small runs in the EU.
About Canterbury Cathedral
Canterbury Cathedral, the mother church of the worldwide Anglican Communion, has been a place of pilgrimage since the murder of Archbishop Thomas Becket there in 1170 — the pilgrimage of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. The cathedral is part of a UNESCO World Heritage site, and the Pilgrims' Way and Via Francigena begin or pass here.
Its visitors are both pilgrims and heritage tourists; walking routes like the Via Francigena create demand for pilgrim passports, badges and textiles beyond the cathedral shop.
What pilgrims take home from Canterbury Cathedral
Motifs we work into the designs:
- the cathedral's Bell Harry Tower
- Thomas Becket
- medieval pilgrim badges (ampullae)
- the Via Francigena waymark

Frequently asked questions
Can you make products only for our shrine?
Yes. Every design is drawn for one place and one client. If you are the shrine’s own shop, we can keep the artwork exclusive to you.
What is the minimum order for Canterbury Cathedral?
From 50–100 pieces per design for most products made in the EU, pilgrim kits from 30–50 sets. Larger runs from 1000 pieces can be produced with our Asian partners at a lower unit price.
Can we use the official logo of the shrine?
Only if you hold the rights or the shrine gives written permission. Otherwise we design with the architecture, the place name and traditional symbols, which need no licence.
How long does it take?
Free mock-ups in 2–5 working days, a sample in 7–10 days if you want one, then 2–3 weeks of production in the EU plus delivery.
