Join us as we relaunch The New Craftsmen with 'Grown in Britain' at Collect Art Fair 2023, Somerset House from 3 - 5 March (Previews 1st & 2nd March,).

After ten years,  acclaimed craft brand The New Craftsmen, will relaunch under the dynamic new stewardship of internationally renowned gallery owner Sarah Myerscough as CEO and Kathy Lacour, as Managing Director.  At Collect they will present a nature-inspired new collection of pieces, ‘Grown in Britain’ to demonstrate their commitment to British craftsmanship working with local materials connected to place and community. 

‘Grown in Britain’ encapsulates a biophilic interior landscape of furniture, lighting, and objects.  This display of handcrafted work showcases some of Britain’s finest craftspeople and reflects on their passion for storytelling that speaks of place through working with natural grown regional materials and a shared gentle sensibility that intrinsically binds us all to the natural landscape of the British Isles. The exhibition will feature the following makers:

Matthew Raw • Eleanor Lakelin • Darren Appiagyei • Hilary Burns • Elaine Bolt
