Newcastle is a city with a strong sense of identity. Proud, welcoming and creative, it’s shaped by industry, culture and a deep connection to the Tyne. For many people, it’s a place that feels like home long after they’ve left.
Our Newcastle Colour Palette captures that spirit through a bold use of colour that reflects the city’s character and energy. It’s a design that resonates with locals, students, visitors and anyone who carries Newcastle with them.
Now available across our gift and homeware range, the Newcastle palette can be enjoyed as wall art, framed prints, enamel cups, coasters, placemats, aprons and stationery. These are pieces designed to be used every day, bringing a sense of place into kitchens, living spaces and work areas.
As a gift, Newcastle works effortlessly. It’s personal, meaningful and instantly recognisable, ideal for housewarmings, birthdays, graduations or thoughtful reminders of home.
