Head meeter & greeter at our Wylye Valley Art Trai

Head meeter & greeter at our Wylye Valley Art Trail @wylyevalleyart is finally pooped after indefatigably giving of his best to all those he met on the trail. He, plus the rest of the team, send a huge thank you to all those that visited us over its duration #WVAT21 #wylyevalleyarttrail #openstudios #arttrails #supportpeopleinsheds #hymntotheartisan #seeyounexttimearound #visitwiltshire #visithindon #matthewburtstudio #thankyou #lovenpeace

Three tables one for outside dining, in sweet ches

Three tables one for outside dining, in sweet chestnut, another in an oval of lacewood, which is what timber merchants call the centre planks of the London plane & having waxed it with words, charge twice as much for it, then the last which we call the 'Lozenge' table and this one is made from lucombe oak, a very mercurial timber & very challenging to season. All are on show at our workshop until 5.30 tomorrow as part of The Wylye Valley Art Trail #arttrails #WVATtrail #visitstudios #supportpeopleinsheds #WVAT21 #lovenpeace

Opening our shop again after lockdown on 12 April

Opening our shop again after lockdown on 12 April was exciting enough, but the visitors we’ve greeted through the door on the Art Trail @wylyevalleyart have been the icing on the cake. Celebration, enthusiasm, laughter and appreciation are a wonderful tonic. Thank you one and all. The Trail closes on Sunday 9th 5.30pm so still plenty of time to visit all the venues.

We are opening our showrooms (venue27) in the High

We are opening our showrooms (venue27) in the High St & our studio & workshops (venue26) on the outskirts of Hindon in Wiltshire as part of the @wylyevalleyarttrail. At the studio you can meet Julie Ayton & her ceramics, Ruth Dresman & her glass & Pepe Argo with her jewellery. You can also see some of our latest work before delivery to its new homes. We open tomorrow from 10.30 to 5.30 and run concurrently through until & including Sunday 9th of May. It will provide you with an exciting insight into these designer makers work & you'll be able to irreverently, or otherwise ask those questions that arise. #matthewburtstudio #julieayton #supportmakersandmaking #visitwiltshire #visithindon #godsownacre #WVAT21 #WylyeValleyArtTrail #openstudios #arttrails #hangoninthere #outandabout #lovenpeace

We have a category of designing & making that we c

We have a category of designing & making that we call 'loudbark' I think the line goes "on occasions we just cannot stop ourselves from speculatively making pieces of furniture fabricating virtuosity, where we stretch our skills & the budget till the pips squeak". Here are two such pieces one called 'four pebbles in a pool' & the other 'five pebbles in a pool'. Both are masquerading as drinks cabinets, so definitely Friday night pieces. I designed these pieces to be made by Harry Rymer, as the lead maker, to celebrate the completion of his six year apprenticeship & his blossoming into one of our senior makers. Both these pieces & much more, are going to be on show & very much for sale in our Hindon showrooms during the Wylye Valley Art Trail. This is a glorious celebration of the arts & crafts, on show in practitioners studios & workshops, set around our lovely South Wiltshire countryside & communities. It starts on Saturday May 1st & runs until Sunday May 9th. @wylyevalleyart #WVAT21 #WylyeValleyArtTrail #arttrail #openstudios #supportmakersandmaking #supportpeopleinsheds #visitwiltshire #wylyevalley #naddervalley #godsownacre #lovenpeace

Pyramids again. The top of pyramidalized bow-front

Pyramids again. The top of pyramidalized bow-fronted pieces disport another aspect of pyramidal surfaces, which mimic the seed configurations at a sunflower's centre. Officially its a Fibonacci mathematical phenomena but I'll settle for delightful & unexpected curves formed by the valleys between the pyramids. More & more valleys manifest themselves as you walk around the piece. It certainly imparts the jewel like quality of the timber that I seek to celebrate. The five drawer piece won the Clacton-Stevens award, issued annually by The Furniture makers Company. It now lives in the USA. I'm looking for an excuse to make another but need a kind commissioner to give me cause 📷@adrianworth #commissionfurniture #studiofurniture #bespokefurniture #supportbritishmakers #supportbritishmaking #supportpeopleinsheds #britishfurnituredesign #britishtimber #visitwiltshire #visitmyshowroom #visithindon #fridaynightbeckons #breakingthroughtotheotherside #lovenpeace
