EST 2010

Established in 2009 by stylist and fashion industry pro Sinead Foley, with the aim of nurturing original design and making it available to all, SEED has become a destination for its eclectic mix of products. Adverse to anything colloquially ‘craft’, instead the walls of this boutique are lined with original art and the cabinets laden with handmade jewellery from rising stars; ceramics, sculpture a

nd glassware leave vintage workbenches and sideboards (also for sale) groaning whilst luxurious textiles and homewares jostle for space alongside coveted objet trouvé personally sourced by Foley. Some of the pieces are totally unique and the majority in limited supply, ensuring a distinctive purchase every time. Commissions are also happily accepted and vintage furniture can be sourced to order prompting Foley to scour her little black book of contacts and markets to track down that elusive piece.

Okay, so when I say ‘out with the old’ I mean the kind of ‘old’ a toddler calls their mum when they find out how many years young they actually are, not old at all, but in the prime of their lives, thank you very much!
At the shop we have had a gorgeous new delivery from Sideline and some summer sunshine wears from L.F.Markey, so to make space for all the newness we have put some things in the sale. Don’t miss out, the new and the “old” are selling out fast!

Our next line up of artist to introduce you to are...

Honor Jolliffe

Honor Jolliffe is a painter whose work is about finding form, pattern and a harmony of colour. She enjoys portraiture, interiors and landscape, but returns again and again to still life. Working mostly on linen panels, often prepared with her own traditional methods, the resulting paintings are unparalleled in their beauty. An oil painter for 15 years, she works from her studio in Mells, Somerset.

"I love the relationships and quiet conversations that can be built from the everyday objects that are part of our domestic lives. As a mother, cook, homemaker, these are literally the stuff of my days and I enjoy using them to create quiet moments of grace, pleasure and memory." Honor Jolliffe

Eleanor Crow

Eleanor is a painter, illustrator and bookcover designer from London. She is well known for her interior and still life paintings and enjoys working from life with emphasis on observation and the importance of light and colour.

Wendy Jacob

Wendy Jacob is an artist and illustrator who grew up and went to Art School in London. Her paintings are often inspired by landscapes, architecture and garden scapes but most recently she has been focusing on still life compositions. She uses the medium of gouache to capture her playful still life paintings, exploring the colour, form and perspective of everyday objects.

Fiona Carver

A trained furniture designer, Fiona found inspiration in other artists works when running a gallery in London. On her return to her native Rutland she started painting again and now creates observational pieces in oil. Drawn mainly to domestic still lifes, she is inspired by the objects she has around her, their colour and shape and the relationship between these items in the set up. Her low-key palette gives the paintings a quiet, intimate quality, leaving the observer with a sense of gentle calm.

“From the moment I laid eyes on you
This is what I said, I said I see it
And, I like it and, I want it, yes, I do!
I need it to make me happy!”
