Description
 
We are very proud to be selling the captivating works of Caroline Swift. Caroline studied industrial design (textiles) in Scotland and worked for almost twenty years designing knitwear for luxury markets, working in New York, England and in Italy as head of knitwear design for Benetton. it was this rich experience and traveling the world extensively for research that led Caroline to develop a curiosity for other areas of design such as food, ceramics and interiors.

After a sabbatical in 2003, on return to England, Caroline started developing ideas and concepts for food for a book she was writing but she couldn’t source plates that she liked for the images. it was this intriguing relationship between food and tableware and how they influenced each other that led her to start making her own ceramics.

Caroline’s approach to all areas of design is linked by one underlying philosophy, to create products that are pure and natural with beauty and integrity. her fashion background has given her the opportunity to look at new disciplines with a different perspective and the chance to enjoy her own personal approach to design in a totally uncompromising way.

These birds can be used as hanging decorations or Christmas decorations. The bird has a decorative raised surface which is which is old fashioned letter script, strung with fine linen cord.
