Hever Castle 2020 – with Craft in Focus – This will be the second year this event has been held at this location.
You will find me in Marquee A – Stand 23 – Buy an ticket to the event (Use code CRAFT2020 at the checkout for reduced price tickets (£10 per person). (Over 60s and Students should select Adult tickets and use this code to obtain the £10 ticket rate).
This will be my first show of the year – live, all the rest have been cancelled or virtual……..
An area I have not shown in before (maybe 20 miles away if the crow flies across the neighbouring counties)
I am looking forward to this event to show my exhibits to a largely new audience.
With well established pieces for instance – one of my Candleholders first made as a design in 1993, through to a piece from my lattice range or a object not yet designed or made (plenty of months to the show!) will be on display and available to be purchased.
Alternatively take a business card and contact me at a later date when you require that specially designed piece or maybe order a product online you saw at the show as a gift
A little about the castle and gardens. (Hever Castle 2020 – with Craft in Focus)
The Castle
Going back to the 13th century, Hever Castle was once the childhood home of Anne Boleyn, second wife of Henry VIII and Mother of Elizabeth I. It formed the unlikely backdrop to a sequence of tumultuous events that changed the course of Britain’s history, monarchy and religion.
Its panelled rooms house fine furniture, tapestries, antiques and what is regarded as ‘one of the best collections of Tudor portraits after the National Portrait Gallery’ by David Starkey. The Book of Hours Room beautifully illuminates two prayer books which belonged to Anne Boleyn and bear her inscriptions and signature.
The Gardens
Discover the magnificent award-winning gardens set in 125 acres of glorious grounds at Hever Castle. Marvel at the Pompeiian Wall and classical statuary in the Italian Garden; admire the giant topiary chess set and inhale the fragrance of over 4,000 rose bushes in the quintessential English Rose Garden
