Welcome everyone!

I am taking the opportunity this month to show off my Christmas present from Mr. Holmes, a copper and brass tea caddy that has been produced by the Newton School of Metal Workers. The Newton School is part of the Home Arts and Industries Association, which itself is part of the Arts and Crafts Movement.

It’s a beautiful piece and I am deeply grateful to Mr. Holmes for his kind and thoughtful gift. Though if he thinks this means I am going to ignore the significant charring to the table in his living room he has another think coming.

But moving on! I have here a brochure which shows you several more of the gorgeous objects produced by the Newton School and I hope that something there might inspire you.


And as further inspiration, here is a quotation from Dr. Watson’s work, “The Adventure of the Copper Beeches”:

We were as good as our word, for it was just seven when we reached the Copper Beeches, having put up our trap at a wayside public-house. The group of trees, with their dark leaves shining like burnished metal in the light of the setting sun, were sufficient to mark the house even had Miss Hunter not been standing smiling on the door-step.
