The Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµâ€™s new online shop – – is now open for business, with the physical shop opening in the vaults space on the lower ground floor of The Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Gallery in Somerset House on 19 November.
Initially, the online shop will feature a capsule range of products including prints, books, fashion and homeware, with new products added frequently over the next few months – it will also offer free UK delivery on orders of £50 or more.
Once The Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Gallery reopens, an extensive range of products will also be available in the new shop, now in the unique and atmospheric vaulted space under the building. The area will be named as the Deborah Loeb Brice Vaults in recognition of the transformational support to The Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ from the Deborah Loeb Brice Foundation.
Both online and on site, The Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Shop will feature a range of exclusive and carefully curated product inspired by art and artists in our collections, the fascinating history of The Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ and its place at the forefront of advancing the understanding of the visual arts. Whether curious or expert, there will be something to suit every taste.
Highlights will include homewares inspired by the bohemian creativity of the Bloomsbury Group; products that reflect the exquisite detail of Manet’s iconic work A Bar at the Folies-Bergère; a selection of art and gift books and an edit of collection prints available for you to order in a range of sizes and frames.
The shop will also look to showcase unique products from British independent businesses, supporting artists and makers working locally, from a diverse range of backgrounds. Exciting creative talents such as paper flower maker Emmeli Kimhi and jeweller Aliyah Hussein have designed exclusive collections, drawing inspiration from artworks in our collection.
Supporting The Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµâ€™s wider commitment to sustainability, packaging will be plastic-free wherever possible and the range looks to make use of recycled and natural materials, as well as to source products from within the UK.
Product highlights include:
- Custom prints: Choose from a range of 50 prints featuring the Impressionist icons of The Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµâ€™s collection, whether that’s on art paper or canvas, and in a range of sizes and frames
- Limited Edition Omega Workshops’ Flowers: Flower sculptures were a lesser known output of the Omega Workshops and can be spotted in several works by Bloomsbury Group artists. None of the original flowers survived, so to celebrate the re-opening we have recreated these modernist artefacts in small limited numbers.
- Limited edition Designer rugs: To celebrate The Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµâ€™s wider collaboration with internationally renowned textile company , four brand new Omega Workshops designs have been produced as rugs for The Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ shop. These will be on display when the shop reopens, and are created by master craftsmen using hand dyed yarn. Each rug design has been produced as a limited edition of 250.
- Vintage posters: Explore The Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµâ€™s history told through a capsule range of historic exhibition posters, now reissued for the first time
- A 10% discount will be available both online and on-site in The Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Gallery to Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ Friends.* All profits from the shop will go to support The Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµâ€™s mission to advance the understanding of the visual arts.
