Olga Skavos’ response to our Autumn Exhibition brief, ‘Harvest Home’.

We celebrate the end of harvest with our new exhibition, Harvest Home, a traditional English Harvest festival, celebrating the end of the harvest.

“My inspiration for the “Harvest Home” collection was my grandmother’s garlic and onion plaits. She was amazing at it. These were made to dry and store the produce well, but they were so beautiful & always decorated the kitchen walls and ceiling, as well as some may say protected the doors from the bad entities.

I wanted to use simple ingredients like organically grown garlic, radish and plants, herbs used in cooking… teas, tinctures.. Flora that is available for self health. A wreath that is  beautiful but also smells and feels good…

The wreath is made from a variety of plants including garlic, radish, rosemary, oregano, lavender , eucalyptus, Papaver, lunaria annua, hydrangea, panicum, briza maxima,  amobium, Limonium, millet and more."

We invited our makers and artists to create one of a kind pieces inspired by the traditions, rituals and abundance of this evocative time of year. Drawing upon folklore, history and the rich symbolism of the harvest season, the responses to the Harvest Home brief are both varied and thoughtful.

Due to the delicate nature of the wreath, only collection from our shop is available for this work.

Approx Dimensions: Diameter 30cm Depth 10cm
