£25.00 GBP
£25.00 GBP

Discover the stories of creativity, labour and collective action at the heart of Earthly Paradise: Radical Living in the UK through this exclusive Women at Work cap, created in partnership with Glasgow Women's Library and available from William Morris Gallery.

Beautifully made and embroidered, this striking black cap features a logo inspired by a significant moment in women's history. Celebrating the often-overlooked contributions of women to working life, political movements and social change, the design reflects the exhibition's exploration of radical histories and alternative ways of living.

Inspired by the post-1945 section of the exhibition, curated by Linsey Young, the cap connects to themes of feminism, activism and community action. It forms part of a special range developed with Glasgow Women's Library, a pioneering organisation dedicated to preserving and sharing women's histories, stories and achievements. Through bold design and historical references, the collection highlights the enduring impact of women's work, both paid and unpaid, in shaping society.

Comfortable, practical and easy to wear, this embroidered cap is both a fashionable accessory and a statement piece. Whether worn every day or collected as a souvenir, it offers a meaningful way to engage with histories of activism, equality and social change.

Every purchase directly supports William Morris Gallery, helping to fund vital conservation work, world-class exhibitions and community education programmes.
