Brand Values

• •Appreciation for Vintage and History
• •Curation and Quality
• •Connection to a Specific Place
• •Aesthetic Cohesion
• •Simplicity and Beauty

Best Practices

• •Always Use Storytelling: Instead of just listing features, tell the story of the item. Where is it from? What era? What feeling does it evoke? This enhances the 'vintage' and 'curated' value.
• •Emphasize a 'Gentle' Vocabulary: Use words like 'lovely,' 'charming,' 'serene,' 'timeless,' 'gentle,' and 'beautiful' to maintain the calm and appreciative tone. Avoid aggressive sales language like 'Hurry,' 'Last Chance,' or 'Don't Miss Out.'
• •Connect to the Senses and Emotions: Write copy that helps the customer imagine the item in their home. Talk about the 'salty air,' the 'calm of the sea,' and the 'warmth of a coastal cottage' to create an emotional connection.
• •Maintain Geographic Authenticity: Continue to highlight the Isle of Wight and other specific coastal provenances. This is a key differentiator and builds trust with a niche audience looking for authentic pieces.
• •Be Consistent in Simplicity: Keep the language clean and elegant. The copy should feel as uncluttered and thoughtfully arranged as the products themselves. The goal is to create a sense of peace, not urgency.

Social Perception

The brand projects an image of a specialist, boutique retailer and a trustworthy source for authentic vintage coastal items, particularly those with a connection to the Isle of Wight. It is perceived as a small, dedicated business with global aspirations, appealing to a niche audience with sentimental or aesthetic ties to British coastal style.
