Celia Wood’s response to our Spring Collection Brief, ‘Love Needs an Object’.

We invited our makers and artists to create a single piece or a series as an expression of love, open to their interpretation. The work could have a narrative running through, or be a pure symbol of love. Our aim was for the work to play a role within the home and to resonate with love.

Celia responded with a small collection, a large vase, a platter and a pair of candlesticks, beautifully illustrated with tales of love and courtship.|
“This was such a fun prompt to take inspiration from traditional folk art wedding invites and marriage certificates where they would be heavily illustrated with thoughtful details and patterns and a wee drawing of the couple too”.
