If its stunning glassware that you are looking for, we have pieces from Lindean Mill Glass, this glass studio has an international reputation and is renowned for contemporary-designed tableware and collections of vessels for interior settings. And collectors are always excited by the latest work from Julia Linstead of Coldstream including Julia's renowned and gorgeous sandblasted bowls.
We also have a range of sought after ceramics from Linda Kinsman Blake at Smailholm and delightfully quirky silver jewellery from Robyn Kinsman Blake which is inspired by the natural world and features hares, birds and a charming little birdhouse necklace.
A collection which is proving incredibly popular with visitors, we have a wide range of colourful woollens and textiles from Green Grove Weavers including gloves, hats, caps, mittens and berets. And last but certainly not least, we have a range of unique Mellerstain Tartan cushions. Velvet backed, they are made from the ‘Hunting Hamilton’ tartan that our Tour Guides wear, a Mellerstain variation and colourway that has been woven locally, that is a unique to us.
With a range of quality souvenirs, cards and colourful items and toys for children, there really is something for everyone in our new Mellerstain shop.
As we mentioned in the introduction, we know that our visitors have an appreciation of arts and crafts and we are delighted to be able to showcase a collection of beautiful work, the majority of which has been created right here in the Borders.
As you wander through our Courtyard, perhaps for a coffee or on your way to a walk in the grounds, be sure to pop in and take a look at the lovely work on display. This is the ideal opportunity to take home a truly unique souvenir of the Borders.
