The Design Space Jewellers are pleased to report that we had a successful and rewarding time at the recent Harrogate exhibition. After an intense build up in the work shop it was also nice to have a change of scenery together, we mixed business with pleasure and had a lot of laughs followed by a trip to the Yorkshire Sculpture park on the way home.
This was not entirely recreational however, as Design Space Jeweller Kayleigh Biggs currently has an impressive display of her work at this incredible venue and a number of others were approached at BCTF to exhibit in there Christmas showcase, so this can definitely be classed as a spot of research. www.ysp.co.uk
Awards were also scooped at the fair with Jemma Daniels being highly commended by The British Jewellers' Association in their Award for Excellence in Jewellery, for her collection entitled Reflections of Movement. A number of previous Design Spacers also won awards this year including Anna Calvert, who received Best Newcomer, sponsored by Craft & Design Magazine. www.annacalvert.co.uk
All in all we had a great time.
