The hand carved lettering in this beautiful sister piece to Fragile Form Sculpture No#1 captures the signature motifs within the Fragile Form Collection. 

Created for Collect 2025, the sculpture evokes a sense of decay and fragility as seen in the pages of an ancient book - the words and language, the wisdom they hold, remaining when all else has withered and gone, the sculpted form reminiscent of a turning page.   

From her Fragile Form Series, a beautifully sculpted piece by Mari Thomas for Collect 2025. 

The sculpture evokes the fragile pages of an ancient book, words in Welsh and English hand carved into its surface to reflect the lasting impact and power of language, the wisdom of ages held within the ‘pages' - the written word being the last to decay and die. 

Created for Collect 2025, ‘Sea of Stories’ is a wall panel which invites closer attention, filled with the mysteries and stories of the oceans - or what we choose to see within it. 

Typical of Gegenwart's work,  the piece explores the themes of rhythms and water - recurring motifs within her work - with her unique treatment of the copper giving it a particular tone, depth and interest.  

Additional complexity is added to the work by the choice of a white mount - drawing out the reflections of the lattice work to give the piece a 3 dimensional quality and provoke a tactile, as well as a visual, exploration of the work. 

For the close observer, words are etched within the panel to emphasise the language of the piece, the darkness of the work countered by the light enamel details. 

The colour of the mounting board can be changed to create different effects and interpretations of the work.

Inspired by William Blake's poem ‘Indra’s Net’ this beautiful sculpture created by Beate Gegenwart for Collect 2025, encapsulates signature motifs within her work - movement and fluidity. In this piece she evokes the intricate rhythms of water - the sparkling currents and ever changing movement of the sea - observed as she walks near her home in Gower. Mounted here on red, the sculpture can be backed with different colours as shown below, drawing out different motifs within the work and our response to it.

Sterling silver jewellery box with brooch and earrings.

The simple, chased lines of this elegant jewellery box by Rebecca Oldfield, belies its ingenuity with two beautiful jewellery pieces hidden within. 

The box is skilfully crafted to create the perfect storage for a chased silver brooch and a stunning pair of silver and 18 ct gold earrings with diamond decoration, two small hooks enabling the earrings to hang freely within it. 

A brooch pin is cleverly concealed within the lid of the box - meticulously chased to align with the chasing on the base of the box - to transform it into a stunning and wearable piece of art.
