Description
How it all began
Bahama Hand Prints was established in 1966 by artists Helen Astarita and Berta Sands. On a visit to the Florida Keys these women visited a small factory in Key West where they observed fabric being hand printed, using silk-screens. So impressed were they by the procedure and the spectacularly coloured fabrics produced, that they decided to start their own company back in the Bahamas. Helen and Berta were enthusiastic and quickly mastered the techniques involved in making silk screens, mixing the inks, hand printing the fabric, designing and sewing the final products. Their bold and brilliant designs became the signature of Bahama Hand Prints.
The business has grown significantly during the last few years. The wholesale market has been expanded to include local high-end retail shops like The Plait Lady in the Atlantis Marina Village, the Windermere Spa in Lyford Cay, The Linen Shop [Bay Street], Bahama Republic [Paradise Island], Blue Rooster [Harbour Island], Abaco Beach Resort [Marsh Harbour], Goodfellow Farms and many more. Foreign clients include boutique owners in the US [mainly Florida and the East Coast] and the West Indies. In May of 2004 Bahama Hand Prints opened a new boutique which is a part of the new factory complex.
The range of products has expanded and now includes household items such as tea towels, placemats & napkins, a complete collection of women’s wear – dresses, trousers, capris, blouses, skirts, shorts, handbags, cosmetic bags and for men, shirts!
