HIGH TEA WITH RAMM, SON & CROCKER AND JEAN MONRO
August 25, 2026 | By The Textile Company | News

Our Prahran showroom played host to a beautiful morning of high tea on Wednesday 5 August, as Melbourne’s design community gathered to celebrate Ramm, Son & Crocker and Jean Monro – two storied English textile houses whose combined history stretches back to 1891.
Guests were given an in-depth look at Ramm, Son & Crocker’s archive of over 17,000 historic documents, and at Jean Monro’s own legacy of hand block-printed chintz, founded in 1982 by Jean Monro and drawn from the original archive of her mother, celebrated 1920s decorator Geraldine Monro – a heritage now recognised by Jean Monro’s Royal Warrant, held by appointment to His Majesty King Charles III.

Set against the backdrop of our showroom, the morning unfolded over high tea, with guests exploring fabric archives up close and discussing how these centuries-old designs continue to be reimagined for contemporary interiors.
It was a fitting celebration of two brands whose enduring appeal lies in honouring the past while remaining relevant to today’s spaces!
