Meet Our Director- Bree

For Bree, Barefoot Gypsy is more than a business—it's a reflection of a lifelong love for travel, craftsmanship, and collecting pieces that carry a story.

Since taking over Barefoot Gypsy 18 months ago, Bree has embraced the opportunity to continue a brand built on authenticity and timeless design. Her passion has always been travelling beyond the tourist trail, discovering places through the eyes of the locals, wandering hidden villages, bustling markets and artisan workshops where traditions have been passed down through generations. It is these experiences that inspire every collection brought into the store.

Rather than chasing perfection, Bree is drawn to the beauty of the imperfect. A weathered timber table, a handwoven basket, an aged vessel with worn edges or subtle markings—these are the pieces that speak of history, craftsmanship and the hands that created them. They remind us that true beauty lies in character, not flawlessness.

Barefoot Gypsy is built around the belief that our homes should feel collected rather than decorated. Every piece is thoughtfully sourced from skilled artisans around the world, celebrating slow-made traditions, sustainable craftsmanship and the stories woven into every imperfection.

Alongside Bree is her husband, Drew, whose quiet passion for people has become an equally important part of the Barefoot Gypsy experience. You'll often find Drew personally delivering furniture and homewares, taking the time to meet customers, hear their stories and see the pieces become part of their homes. For him, it's more than making a delivery—it's about building genuine relationships and sharing in the excitement of helping create spaces filled with warmth and meaning.
