Meet the makers
Amber Studio
Candles & home fragrance
I make beeswax candles from our own hives with wax from twelve hives in the Chilterns.
Ash Company
Woodwork
I turn bowls on a pole lathe with hand tools, so you can hear me working at the market.
Beeswax Field
Candles & home fragrance
I pour rapeseed wax candles by hand in returnable glass, with a cotton wick and nothing synthetic. Bring the jar back and the refill is a third off.
Cullet House
Glass
I fuse and slump kiln-formed glass from bottles collected at these very markets.
Folio Studio
Print & illustration
I make screen prints in two or three colours of the river, the deer park and the birds on them.
Frond Plants
Plants & florals
I make dried flower arrangements from flowers grown and dried here, so they last for years. Pots are terracotta or recycled — none of them plastic.
Harvest Table
Preserves & pantry
I make marmalade from Seville oranges once a year in copper pans, twelve jars at a time. Labels are printed on recycled stock and hand-written.
Knot Studio
Woodwork
I make small furniture from storm-fallen timber finished with linseed oil and beeswax only.
Little Pot
Streetfood
We do one thing — a proper toasted sandwich with everything prepped from scratch the morning before.
Marbled Papers
Stationery
I hand-bind notebooks with recycled paper and linen thread, sewn not glued.
Rush Homewares
Homewares
I sew cushions from vintage fabric using curtains and blankets from house clearances.
Slip Pottery
Ceramics
I make small-batch tableware with a matte speckle and a raw clay foot. Everything is fired twice in a shared kiln in Brentford.
Slip Studio
Ceramics
I throw and hand-carve porcelain in muted glazes tested over two years.
Sourdough Table
Bakery & cakes
I make Polish babka and cinnamon buns in small batches, in my own kitchen, licensed and inspected. The seconds bag at the end of the day is the best value on the stall.
The Beeswax Room
Candles & home fragrance
I roll and dip pure beeswax tapers scented only with essential oils. The seconds shelf is candles with a wonky top and a full burn time.
The Clay Field
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.
The Hemp Room
Homewares
I sew cushions from vintage fabric using curtains and blankets from house clearances.
The Wheel Kitchen
Ceramics
I hand-build slab vessels finished with ash glazes I mix myself.
Wild Drinks
Drinks
We brew kombucha in fifty-litre batches with nothing but tea, sugar, time and fruit.
