Dansel Gallery - Latest News
Summer 2006.

New Work
There is a good selection of furniture in the gallery by several makers at present as well as many mirrors. Carved birds, decoys and animals remain very collectable. New work by Judith Nicoll including a stunning shoal of mackerel has just come in.

Natural edged chopping boards are regularly made by Robert Parker in spalted beech and elm are very popular due to their individual shapes and markings. These go nicely with the laminated wooden cheese knives.

The full-size baby rocking rhino and hippo made in laminated plywood and the rocking horse are still available for the children to play on while their parents can relax looking around the gallery. The play table of jigsaws and twig crayons remains a favorite corner for the little ones.

The Jurassic Coast in West Dorset continues to inspire new artistic items in wood. Come and see the ammonite puzzles.

The Woodland Trust
The Woodland Trust remains our main charity. We have collecting boxes and membership leaflets and many makers actively plant trees to replace the wood they use.

Sales Help
When you come to visit the gallery you will be greeted by either Danielle, Sue, Carol and Pat who keep us open seven days a week on a rota. Nicky, Eric, Val and Sara stand in when needed. They will all be happy to help and give advice should you need it.
