Soap & Salvation launch garden range at Water Lane
Water Lane, the Victorian walled garden, restaurant and events space near Hawkhurst in the High Weald of Kent, has partnered with Soap & Salvation, to sell a bespoke edit of vintage and antique garden furniture and pieces, which have been exclusively sourced for Water Lane.
Launching on Friday 29th April at Water Lane, there will be time worn French iron tables and chairs mixing colours and styles for sale, vintage hand-woven basketry in all shapes and sizes, galvanised planters with hand painted blocks of green, cream and egg-yolk yellow, and a collection of beautiful urns from the eastern Mediterranean with naïve hand-painted patterns, half-glazed necks, and simplistic scribed decoration.
Soap & Salvation was founded by Jo and Barrie McPherson; they source from the heart, mixing antique, vintage and 20th century design finds to create their modern rustic style. The partnership at Water Lane brings their passion for sourcing and collecting unique treasures, with a joint reverence for functional everyday objects that combine beauty and solid craftsmanship.
