About CHESKIE Folk

Our Mission

At CHESKIE folk, our mission is to inspire, inform, and transform homes with remarkable pieces that tell a story. We carefully source unique decorative accessories and art, celebrating colour, details, and craftsmanship. By connecting our customers with the history and emotion behind each item,

CHESKIE folk brings spaces to life, elevating homes with beauty, character, and meaning.

We stand for community over consumerism, story over spectacle and craft over mass production.

Remarkable Pieces with Soul - Each product is a conversation starter - unique, eye-catching, and unforgettable.

Stories Brought to Life - From artisan techniques to cultural heritage, each item carries a narrative that inspires curiosity, emotion, and connection.

Curated with Deep Expertise - CHESKIE folk is shaped by a founder whose knowledge ensures every piece is selected for its authenticity, craftsmanship, and the meaning it brings to a home.

"There’s a certain kind of beauty that makes your eyes sparkle and your heart skip a beat and that’s where I come alive.

I’m endlessly inspired by the craftsmanship and stories woven into every detail. Textiles, especially, are my weakness. As a weaver, the culture, history, and skill behind each thread never fail to make my fingers itch with excitement.

CHESKIE folk is my way of sharing that passion.

It’s a space for those who, like me, are enchanted by art, design, and the soul of handmade creations and for those just beginning to discover this world. My hope is to spark curiosity, connection, and a deeper appreciation for the stories behind the objects we live with.

As an interior decorator, I believe our homes should be filled with pieces that speak treasures that catch the eye, invite conversation, and make every corner feel alive with history and heart."

Meet Francesca

With a degree in textile design, experience as a home accessories buyer, and a decade spent collaborating with artisans from Mexico to India to Cambodia, Francesca developed a deep understanding of materials, techniques, and the passion that brings objects to life. 

As an interior decorator, she combines this expertise with a love for discovering hidden treasures, helping people connect with pieces that are not only visually striking but rich in meaning. What sets her apart is her ability to see the soul in objects - to recognise their story, skills, and heritage - and to translate that into spaces that feel personal, layered, and alive.
