Meet the makers
Ash Studio
Ceramics
I make small-batch tableware with a matte speckle and a raw clay foot.
Bramble Cloth
Clothing
I upcycle wool coats and jackets with the original labels kept in as a record. Everything goes home in a paper bag or your own.
Found Trove
Vintage & upcycled
I rescue and rewire mid-century lamps tested, PAT-certified and safe to plug in.
Glaze Larder
Ceramics
I throw functional stoneware on the wheel glazed in soft oatmeal, sage and off-white. Mugs, jugs and serving bowls made to be used daily.
Lather Works
Bath & body
I make simple skincare with five ingredients or fewer using British-grown botanicals wherever they exist.
Lune Craft
Jewellery
I solder fine chains and stacking rings cast in my kitchen from recycled offcuts. Commissions are about a third of what I do.
Shard Glass
Glass
I make lampwork beads and small sculpture fired three times, which is why they take a fortnight.
Spoon Yard
Woodwork
I carve spoons and boards from green wood from London plane and cherry felled by the council anyway.
Spring Brew
Drinks
We press apple juice from Chiltern orchards from windfall fruit that the farm cannot sell.
Stoneware Studio
Ceramics
I make small-batch tableware with a matte speckle and a raw clay foot.
The Ember Table
Streetfood
We make Neapolitan-style pizza from a converted trailer on a single gas ring, which keeps the menu honest. We serve until it runs out, which on a good Sunday is by two.
The Press Cordial
Drinks
We roast single-origin coffee in small drums on direct trade beans, with the price paid printed on every bag.
The River Yard
Ceramics
I hand-build slab vessels finished with ash glazes I mix myself. Mugs, jugs and serving bowls made to be used daily.
The Type Fern
Print & illustration
I make screen prints in two or three colours of the river, the deer park and the birds on them.
Warp Thread
Textiles & accessories
I sew bags from salvaged sailcloth and canvas from offcuts that would otherwise be landfill.
