Beautiful things for you and your home.

We are delighted to welcome back Lustre at Lakeside, our annual, contemporary craft and design fair. At Lustre you can buy everything from artisan jewellery and bags to ceramics, glass and tableware. This year we have put together a selection of the very best in a smaller, safer setting, but you will still find some of your favourite makers, along with new names to tempt you. Not only can you buy or commission work direct from 40 of the UK’s finest established and emerging designer/makers, selected for the quality and uniqueness of their craft, but you can also see our amazing exhibition Breaking the Mould in the gallery.

Entry to Lustre is free this year, so with Christmas just around the corner, get a head start and buy unique gifts for your family and friends and perhaps even treat yourself.
