Rose of Jericho at St Blaise Ltd
St Blaise was a specialist Dorset-based historic building conservation company with an enviable reputation founded by a group of talented individuals led by the late Ian Constantinides. Lime mortars, plasters and traditional paints were manufactured for use on their own projects, St Blaise recognised that the purchase of Rose of Jericho would strengthen and help develop the materials side of the business.
Mortars and paints were promoted and offered for sale to owners of historic buildings. Total sales in the first month of trading amounted to £18.20.
Mighty oaks from little acorns grow!
