Celebrate the summer season with contemporary craft by some of the UK’s most skilled independent makers. The Summer Craft Collection at New Ashgate Gallery in Farnham brings together handmade ceramics, glass, jewellery, textiles and wood, selected for their colour, texture, craftsmanship and lasting appeal.

The collection includes hand-thrown vessels, sculptural ceramics, studio glass, contemporary jewellery, woven textiles and finely made wooden pieces. Each maker brings a distinct approach to material, form and surface, with work that feels fresh, thoughtful and beautifully made.

Featured makers include:

Ceramics by: Gabi Komar Dixon, Amy Doe, Niraja Pahuja, Suri Poulos, Jo Taylor, Arjan van Dal, Tessa Wolfe-Murray and Welcombe Pottery.

Jewellery and metalwork by Bea Jareno, Emma Leonard, Susan MacLeod, Clare Maiden and Kate Smith.

Sculpture by David Mayne.

Woodwork by Jane Crisp and Takahashi McGil.

Textiles by Liz Padgham and Minako Tsuda.

Whether you are looking for handmade craft for the home, a distinctive summer gift or a piece to add to a collection, the Summer Craft Collection offers original work you will not find on the high street. All pieces are available to buy online and in the gallery. Every purchase supports independent makers and helps New Ashgate Gallery continue its charitable work championing contemporary art and craft.
