Linley celebrates Great British Design
Hetty Chidwick attends the Linley exhibition which celebrates great British brands and manufacturing on Pimlico Road


Wednesday evening saw the launch of a new exhibition in the Linley shop on Pimlico Road celebrating great British design, craftsmanship, engineering and innovation.
Curated by David Linley and Scott Simpson it celebrates the first-class craftsmanship of some of the most beautiful things made in Britain today.
The exhibition has some surprising pieces which include a Mclaren sports car, Bremont watches, JCB diggers and Lock & Co hats, which are all cleverly displayed around and on some exquisite Linley products. The show reminds us that we don't need to look too far to find some of the most innovative, beautiful and original products in the world. Linley made a video at the launch, which gives more of a flavour of what you can see if you visit.
The show only runs for a couple of weeks so get there fast and then possibly pop along to the Daylesford farm shop and café down the road for a delicious British meal afterwards.
Exhibition until March 14th 60 Pimlico Road, London, Sw1w 8LP www.davidlinley.com
