Chainsaw Carving

Experience the timeless beauty of these individually hand-carved sculptures which are crafted at many of the shows this year. Carvings are available to buy and if you do, they create a lasting impression in your home, conservatory or garden. 

Each piece is carved from reclaimed timber from a number of sustainable sources throughout England. The wood is hand selected from sawmills, salvage, tree surgery and garden clearance specialists for its character, colour and suitability for carving.

This year a new type of chainsaw carving has been introduced to run along side the more familiar carvers. In the Sculpture & Chainsaw Art Studio, carvers skilfully shape the wood by following the natural form & grain, to create unique art forms.

Ian Freemantle & invited guest artists are demonstrating this wonderful art at this year’s Living Heritage Shows.

The Artist's Studio has a selected level of art on display for inspiration & to buy. Also by popular demand, the speed carve event is held twice a day. The carvers create a sculpture within 20 minutes, which is then auctioned off to the gathered crowd.

As a treat, on special occasions, English folk music & traditional clog dancers are appearing on stage to help wind away the summer days.
