SUE KIRK
Working with home grown willow, Sue and Kirk create baskets and sculptural pieces rooted in sustainability and traditional craft. First inspired in 1998 by the environmental benefits of willow and the longevity of the practice, their work begins in organically cultivated willow beds near King’s Cliffe, where several varieties of basket willow are grown and harvested by hand. Just a mile away at The Old Brewery Studios, the willow is woven into bespoke traditional and contemporary baskets and sculptural forms.
Each piece reflects a close relationship between material, landscape and process, balancing practical function with an expressive, sculptural quality. Alongside private commissions, Sue and Kirk contribute to a wider culture of craft education, regularly hosting specialist basketmakers from across the UK and Europe to share knowledge, techniques and a continued respect for this enduring rural practice.

Inspired by his ancestor, who ran a saddlery business on Oxford Street in the 1800s, Charlie began his leather working journey at Capel Manor College in 2009. Upon graduating, he was awarded the Excellence in Saddlery Bursary by the Worshipful Company of Saddlers, before going on to apprentice with one of London’s finest leather goods manufacturers.There, Charlie was trained by some of the most skilled leather workers in the country; craftspeople with decades of experience, many spanning over 50 years in the trade. This period proved formative, allowing him to develop exceptional technical skill and a deep understanding of leather craft.
In 2016, armed with this knowledge and driven by a desire to create his own vision, Charlie founded Charles Laurie London. He was awarded the prestigious Cockpit Arts Leathersellers’ Award and Bursary for three consecutive years, recognising both his craftsmanship and innovation.
