For this Winter’s curated display we continue our tradition of selecting high quality, beautifully made and unique pieces which can be gifted to be used and loved for years to come. This show encourages an investment in meaningful pieces that will last, in which skillful making and craftsmanship are essential elements.
With this in mind we have curated a range of contemporary jewellery, functional ceramics and tableware, basketry and wood to be used in the home, beautiful wearable textiles and hangings. All made by studio based makers from across the UK, who employ traditional techniques, often using sustainable materials and practices.
Makers include:
Textiles by Eve Campbell, Kate Jones, Mr.PS, Kate Owens & RubyKite
Jewellery by Hannah Bedford, Rachel Darbourne, Gail Klevan, Ann Little, Lindsey Mann, Rentaro Nishimura, Sarah Packington, Kaz Robertson, Charlotte Verity, Jenifer Wall, DeeLyn Walsh & Annabet Wyndham
