Augustus Stickland
Originally from Somerset, Augustus has always been interested in woodworking, there he trained under a master joiner and cabinet maker from whom he learnt his craft.
After two years he enrolled at Camberwell College of Arts to undertake the Fine Art Drawing course. Once finishing, he went to work with many award-winning furniture designers over the next 5 years learning new and complex woodworking skills. Along with his own fine art practice, he has continued to design and build commissioned projects for private clients.

Moxon & Simm
Debby and Ian trained at Sheffield achieving a BA(Hons) 3D Design (Silversmithing and Jewellery) in 1981.
Established in 1982, designing and making high-quality designer jewellery, selling and exhibiting in some of the best galleries and craft shops across the UK.
Each piece is unique and made by hand from design to finish so production is limited.
Although well known for their titanium jewellery, precious metals and stones, including opals, are used in additional ranges and one off pieces.
Gowan Jewellery
Joanne creates fine artist jewellery: these ‘vignette’ items are rather like framed artworks that focus on one moment or story, giving Joanne’s insight into a particular subject. Pieces develop in small groups of work, often with representational themes, which stem from her sketching and watercolours during her time away from the workbench. All the designs are created as one off pieces and can be displayed as miniature objet d’art or worn as jewellery.
Designs are influenced by her love of nature, landscape, travel, history, literature, archaeology, ballet & music. Joanne also makes classic and timeless jewellery, one-off unique designs using the highest quality gemstones.
The one-off jewels and ‘picture’ pieces are created by hand in precious materials using traditional techniques – 18ct gold, platinum, palladium, silver and a wide variety of gemstones, including rare items and unusual cuts. Joanne is always happy to create individual pieces to a clients brief and is happy to use clients own stone or recycle loved family jewellery.
Joanne has been a full time designer jeweller for over 40 years after studying for a Jewellery BA Degree at Central School of Art and Design. Joanne Gowan has her workshop within her own retail premises Gowan Jewellers, which she opened in 1988 in Hertfordshire and relocated to Pateley Bridge in 2024. She sells her works direct to clients at her own premises and at high quality craft & design fairs throughout the country.

Fiona Mazza
Fiona Mazza is a ceramic artist living in Yorkshire and over the last 27 years has developed numerous skills through making, teaching and technician work. The core of the work is based on nature, particularly the amazing butterfly world. However, Fiona enjoys the challenge of designing and making individual pieces using many techniques, this allows her to explore clay in many areas.
Fiona’s work is inspired by nature. Butterflies are the main focus. Ceramic Pieces are produced in various techniques, she loves incorporating different materials, often working with other craft makers to produce truly different pieces of work. Fiona loves exploring the surface of the pot, using the surface like a canvas, pushing the material to its limits, often representing the natural world’s challenges from mans impact.
After a fire in the adjoining building of her studio in Pateley Bridge, which destroyed a lot of equipment and important reference work, Fiona slowly started building up a small studio space at home in Harrogate, back where she started, and has stated its been a really emotional time your world has been turned upside down but out of this hopefully new work in time will be developed.
