Ken Stradling

I was invited by Margaret Howell to see the work she has selected from the Ken Stradling Collection, modernist pieces of glass and furniture which Stradling collected while he was working as a buyer for the Bristol Guild of Applied Art during the 1950s, buying studio glass in Scandinavia.   He also acquired furniture designed by Marcel Breuer and made by P.E. Gane, a firm in Bristol run by Crofton Gane who supported and promoted modern design.   The work is displayed throughout the shop.
