How would you describe your Gallery?:

Old Chapel Gallery is a vibrant, ever-evolving space dedicated to showcasing the very best of British contemporary fine art and handmade craft. Bringing together both emerging talent and established artists, the gallery offers a carefully curated mix that feels fresh, eclectic, and full of character. On the fine art side, visitors can explore an inspiring selection of original framed works; from watercolours and gouache to oils, pastels, etchings, and aquatints, with prices ranging from £50 to £3,500. Alongside these are browsers filled with unframed prints and a wide array of beautifully designed cards, making it just as welcoming for first-time buyers as for seasoned collectors. Craft plays an equally exciting role in the gallery’s identity. The collection features acclaimed British designer-makers working across ironwork, contemporary furniture, woodturning, carving, hand-blown and stained glass, ceramics, bronze, garden sculpture, jewellery and textiles. A particularly striking highlight is the thoughtfully curated range of wearable pieces , art you can truly live in. The result is a space that feels dynamic and richly textured, where fine art and craft sit comfortably side by side, and where there’s always something new to discover.

Do you specialise in any particular artform or craft?:

Old Chapel Gallery specialises in high-quality British contemporary fine art and handmade crafts, with a particular emphasis on oils on canvas, ceramics, stained glass, and textiles. The gallery carefully curates work from both emerging and established artists and designer-makers, bringing together expressive painting with exceptional craftsmanship. Richly layered oil paintings sit alongside beautifully thrown ceramics, luminous stained glass pieces and thoughtfully created textile works; including both decorative and wearable art. The result is a collection that celebrates skill, material, and individuality, offering visitors distinctive pieces that combine contemporary vision with enduring quality.
