Find out more about us

The Saltbox Gallery & Workshop in Helmsley was opened by Matthew and Louise Dwyer from North Yorkshire. Matthew and Louise select hand crafted artworks for exhibitions at the gallery. Each piece of work chosen is unique and of a very high quality which makes for an exciting, rich and varied collection.

Matthew and Louise are both makers, Matthew is an artist blacksmith and Louise is a jeweller. Therefore, in addition to ceramics, prints, textiles and sculpture, the gallery specialises in metalwork and jewellery. The gallery and courtyard garden houses a brilliant selection of handmade functional and sculptural metalwork pieces. Contemporary designer jewellery is on permanent display, with an ongoing changing collection including wedding and engagement rings, bangles, brooches and necklaces.

Work by both Matthew and Louise are on display at the gallery and commissions can be arranged. See Matthew and Louise’s pages for details.
