As well as stocking fabulous paintings, prints, glass, sculpture and ceramics, The Blue Duck Gallery in Caversham also holds a wonderful and extensive collection of jewellery and textiles. Whether you're looking for a fun and flirty present for a friend or young relative or a really classic piece to set off a special outfit they can help you and, because all their jewellery and textiles are handmade by individual UK designers, unique work that you won't find in high street stores is always available.

Their newest collection of handbags is created by Francesca Salvini in her workshop in Yorkshire; classic in design, they are beautifully made and imaginatively thought out with a modern twist. As for jewellery, Blue Duck are always finding stuning ranges both by well-established designers and by up-and-coming talent. It is always worth popping in to see what's new!
