Northumbrian Water

A truly one-of-a-kind piece for @emma_bridgewater and @officialpeterrabbit collectors. 💙

Introducing ‘Peter Rabbit in the Garden’, an exclusive sculpture created in collaboration with the Emma Bridgewater team and inspired by the beautiful Emma Bridgewater x Peter Rabbit™ collection. 🐰

Emma Bridgewater Senior Designer Sophie Gilmour worked with artist @jina_gelder_illustration to bring the new spongeware design to life in a completely unique way. Created to celebrate 160 years since the birth of Beatrix Potter, the design features Peter Rabbit alongside Flopsy, Mopsy and Cotton-tail, surrounded by beautiful geraniums and, of course, plenty of radishes! 🫜🌺

The result is a very special sculpture that brings together the timeless charm of Beatrix Potter’s Peter Rabbit with the distinctive and much-loved style of Emma Bridgewater.

And that’s not all! 👀

The winning bidder of Lot 33 will also take home a wonderful selection of pieces from the Peter Rabbit™ Garden collection, including mugs, cereal bowls, plates, a tea towel and bunting, worth more than £200.

This really is a collector’s piece you simply won’t find anywhere else, and bidding is open now!

Could Peter Rabbit in the Garden be coming home with you? 🙌

Bid online from home, or join us in person at Newcastle Civic Centre on Tuesday 13th October

Now here is something a little bit special…✨

If you are looking for the perfect statement piece for your garden, let us introduce ‘A Love letter to the British Countryside.’ ✍️

Lot 25 is the only Book Bench for sale in the auction. It’s a truly one-off piece to love and cherish. 📚

The bench is decorated with delicate illustrations of native flowers, birds and handwritten letters that evoke Beatrix Potter’s deep affection for the English countryside. Faithfully depicting the style and spirit of Beatrix Potter’s original artwork, artist @jina_gelder_illustration has created a stunning piece that serves as both a tribute to Potter’s literary legacy and a celebration of the natural world that inspired her stories. 💙

Each character and decorative detail was carefully hand-painted by the artist, creating a piece that is both nostalgic and visually enchanting. We think this will be a big hit with book lovers, collectors and admirers of Potter’s enduring tales.

Bidding is open now, so you can register online to bid from home or book tickets to attend the Peter Rabbit™: Tales on the Tyne Grand Finale auction and bid in person on Tuesday 10th October at Newcastle Civic Centre.

Is Honey the Bunny for you? 🐝

She was certainly a fan favourite, voted ‘Top of the Hops’ by app users throughout the trail. 🏆

That comes as no surprise when you see the exceptional artwork created by artist Valerie Smith-Lane – @valonia.art and sponsored by @applebridgefamily. Bursting with beautiful blooms, buzzing bees and incredible detail, Honey Bunny captured hearts all summer long. 🌺🍯🌹

There’s already plenty of buzz around Lot 4, and we’re expecting a hive of activity when this @officialpeterrabbit takes centre stage on auction night! 🐰

If you can’t bear to miss out on owning this stunning piece of art, you can place your bid online now, bid from home on the night, or join us in person to watch the magic unfold. All money raised through the auction helps support the vital work of @stoswaldsuk. 💙

Prepare to be dazzled! ✨🪩

It’s not long until our fabulous fluffle of @officialpeterrabbit sculptures go under the hammer at auction, raising funds for @stoswaldsuk. Could one of them be hopping home with you? 💙

If you fancy owning a true showstopper, we highly recommend Lot 1 , The Dazzling Tale of Peter Rabbit, created by @natalie_ratcliffe_ and sponsored by @my_metro.

This sparkly sensation will bring drama and excitement wherever it goes, as it creates a disco-ball effect when the light hits it. This lot has already attracted a lot of attention, and rightly so. It was made to stand out and is proud to be kicking off our auction in style! 🕺

You can place your bids on The Dazzling Tale of Peter Rabbit – or another of our 40 lots – by registering to bid online now. Tickets are also on sale to attend in person and bid live.
