IN FOCUS: Things that spark joy
The Imperial War Museum has launched a capsule collection of limited edition products that have been handcrafted from the original stretcher wood from Stanley Spencer's iconic 'Shipbuilding on the Clyde' series of paintings on display at its new Blavatnik art, film and photography gallery.
Handmade in the workshops of IWM London, each item in the range is signed by Stanley Spencer (a copy of which was provided by his grandson) and comes with a certificate of authenticity.

Designed as ‘collector’s items of the future,’ each piece in the range which spans large and medium sized throws, cushions and a table runner is limited in number and inspired by the bold colour combinations on the walls of the new third floor gallery spaces – an Enfilade – a visual feast for the visitor with multiple colorways to be viewed at once.
