Turning Crazy
Using hardwood from sustainable sources and the technique of wood turning, Martin from Turning Crazy makes gorgeous bowls, vases and more. The pieces allow the wood grain to speak for itself and are embellished with painting, waxing and gilding techniques.

Schiewe Ceramics
Sarah Schiewe’s bespoke ceramic sculptures tell stories, and those that are commissioned are done so by every day people. Blending elements of the fantastical with grounded, real-life tales, she crafts striking fine art that resonates emotionally with those that see it.
Living North loves: Dragon vase, £375

Kate Tempest Pottery
From her Yorkshire Dales studio, Kate produces wheel-thrown stoneware clay pieces. From bowls to jugs and egg cups, each one is totally unique due to the unpredictable nature of the kiln, meaning no one else will have a creation like yours.
Living North Loves: Bowl, £26

JBT Glass
A mother-daughter team, JBT Glass’ contemporary sculptures are inspired by the Yorkshire countryside. They use a range of translucent colours to manipulate the light and cause a glorious effect as it passes through the glass. They also make jewellery.
Living North loves: Wild Flower Meadow glass art, £36

Sarah Brabbin
Inspired by British wildlife, Sarah Brabbin’s sculptures bring a little bit of the natural world into your home. In her previous career as a photographer, Sarah found that she loved to capture special moments but lacked connection due to seeing the wildlife through screens. So, she decided to use clay to make animal sculptures by hand, with love – and aren’t we lucky that she did.
Living North loves: Ceramic Bobbly Bunny collectible sculpture, £65

Jas Lewis Henman
Jas’ folk inspired, mythological prints are a beautiful addition to any home. Each one tells a magical story, and looks straight out of a medieval castle, perfect for the history or fantasy lovers.
Living North loves: Dogs of Fire, Water, Earth, Air A4 prints, £12 each
