Our Story
At Cartiums, home has always been at the heart of what we do. We’re a family-run business based in Glasgow, and since 1970 we’ve been helping people create homes that feel cosy, stylish, and lived-in with love.
Our journey began at the Barras Market, where we sold net curtains to our very first customers. What started as a small market stall grew into a shop, then into retail outlets across the West of Scotland – and today, into a thriving online store serving homes all over the UK. Along the way, we’ve stayed true to the same values: friendly service, quality you can count on, and making smart style simple and affordable.
From Then to Now
Over the years, our passion for textiles has taken us from nets and cushion covers to an ever-growing range of home favourites. Today you’ll find everything from crisp cotton bedding and soft, fluffy towels to made-to-measure blinds, kitchen textiles, and stylish finishing touches that make a house feel like home.
We’re proud to stock collections from over 30 trusted brands, alongside pieces created by our own team of skilled makers. Whether it’s a pair of curtains that frames your living room perfectly or cushions that bring a sofa to life, we love helping you find those clever, affordable updates that make everyday living that little bit lovelier.
Our Promise
We know that making a home is personal – and that it’s often the small details that matter most. That’s why we’re committed to offering not just beautiful products, but also helpful service, quick delivery, and prices that feel fair. Our friendly team is always here if you have questions or need advice – because shopping for your home should be simple, enjoyable, and inspiring.
