Christmas with Cat’s Eye Carving.

12 November, 2019 – 1:39 pm

If you are looking for something creative and unique this Christmas then look no further.

I design and carve a variety of individually hand crafted pieces available for you to buy from me at Taurus Crafts,
(a lovely craft centre on the A48 nr Chepstow). I have a superb studio where I work year round on commissions and my unique items.

I use Sandstone from several different quarries in the Forest of Dean & Cumbria, Welsh and Cornish slate, Limestone from Tetbury in South Gloucestershire, Portland in Dorset and Lavoux in France, to bring you some lovely coloured stone. I also hand carve wood.
When I draw out my designs, I choose the right stone or wood to enhance the design, I hand carve words, letters, bookends, faces, tealight holders. I use my imagination and the inspiration that I get from drawing from life, studying historic carvings and whatever I can think of…my mind never stops working on new designs and how to get the most out of the materials that I use.

I also design and make beautiful Welsh slate, seed pearl and sterling silver jewellery.

All these things are available for sale from my shop at the moment, there is plenty of choice as I have been working hard to fill my shelves especially for your delight.

As well as my own creations I also sell stunning metal pieces lovingly crafted by Missfire. Clare will be minding my shop for me from 12 – 5 on the 30th Nov.
