Celebration of Designer Crafts Cheltenham Aug. 17th - 26th 2019
Established in 1995, Celebration of Craftsmanship & Design, the largest selling exhibition of designer-maker furniture in the UK, runs annually from its stunning neoclassical location in Cheltenham. The newest work of around seventy designer-makers comes together to form a unique and fascinating collection of pieces that and are undoubtedly set to become the antiques of the future. The emphasis is on furniture, but each year this is complemented by work from several other disciplines such as jewelry, sculpture, art and glass.
Adrian McCurdy was this year awarded Best use of British Timber by John Makepeace and the Woodland Heritage for his riven Ark.
The ark-chest was assembled as a cavernous flat-pack during the Ernest Gimson conference at Marchmont House in May 2019 and displayed there again in August for the 'Conversations in Wood' weekend.
