Artisan Stroud

"The hard back book is lavishly illustrated with photographs and gives a real insight into the secret world of Stroud." "Clare celebrates that talent whilst offering some insight into what attracted them to live here, and into the pleasures and challenges that go along with forging a life built around a creative endeavour." "This book gives some fascinating insights into the unexpected ways the world of craft is already addressing many of these issues, while making our homes more beautiful places to be." "In this colourful book, local shop owner Clare Honeyfield brings together a selection of stories from those who keep this creative scene alive today." "It’s a brimming cornucopia of beautiful things, all Stroud-connected, from pottery to portraiture, mosaics to chairs, stained glass to soap. And printed on lavish paper in a hefty, hardback format. In short, a keeper." "A wonderful celebration of the local artist and makers from around the area, you can read about their craft and learn what brought them to this beautiful part of the world." -- Vanessa @vanessa_inthe_cotswolds "This is a beautiful, highly informative book which gives a fascinating insight into the creative talent within this unique Cotswold town." - Cotswold Life magazine
