“ART POPULAIRE” LOVE TOKEN
A very rare example of French “Art Populaire” pottery from Provence, decorated with stylised “Cigales” or Cicadas. These insects are the traditional symbolic motif of the Provence region in the South of France and are considered good luck charms.
"Beyond The Mainland" | Recent Works by Tom Hickman
Tom Hickman lives and works alone in a croft on the Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides. He has no mobile phone, television, tablet or wifi.
"at home"
For our 2021 Bada Week Exhibition we thought it would be interesting to loosely draw on this resource and explore a few various different naive and primitive house-form motifs, architectural models, depictions of buildings and homes that we have discovered in multiple media and some of the ways that they have been incorporated into the narrative of British and European Folk Art.
Winter Catalogue 2021..."Collecting, it's just a thing"
The pieces are as fresh and exciting as they were when we originally sourced them and several of them will be included in our forthcoming Winter Catalogue #60, alongside pieces from different collections and other recent acquisitions.
"Love Token" by Cecilia Charlton
Our 10th Contemporary Collaboration installation is now on view in our Battersea Gallery window, showcasing the work of the talented artist Cecilia Charlton.
Two Stylised Shorebird Decoys
There is something uniquely individual about vintage decoy birds, particularly the more diminutive slender shorebirds with their alert tilted heads, folded wings and elegant sinuous necks.
Summer Catalogue No 59
We are excited to announce our latest catalogue is now available and will be sent out electronically to our mailing list on Monday 17th May.
Noah's Ark Toy
Noah’s Ark Models have long been part of the European Folk Art tradition, generally associated with the celebrated cottage-industry of the Erzgebirge region of Germany, where the rough animal forms were fashioned on a lathe, before being carved in detail.
A Closer Look
..........and a Georgian Vernacular Chest of Three Drawers
Just because something is very old does not necessarily make it “good” or even “better” than a younger example and this thought sometimes leads me to consider other qualities that fine old wines and antique furniture can have in common.
A Story of Many Springtimes
Timelessly elegant, gloriously weathered and patinated with natural lichens, the design of this generously scaled garden seat has been attributed to the English Architect Sir Edwin Lutyens, (1869-1944).
