Thank you very much to David for the unique bookends he created for my son's 18th birthday. When I first discussed the idea with David, he was helpful and offered a range of options. The final product included materials from HMS Victory and Blenheim oak. While on holiday in Wells, my son thought he was having a browse in the Gallery looking at the HMS Victory collection. David had thoughtfully displayed the final product on a prominent stand and my son whispered to me how wonderful to own those. It was a lovely moment to tell him they were for him. We hope you can reopen again before long and look forward to visiting...

Read moreVisited the Gallery whilst at Wells, David was there in the Gallery and was so helpful and knowledgable. He was so friendly and forth coming with telling me extra information regarding the items in the Gallery especially on the Victory. I could have spent the whole day there.
I would highly recommend if you are in Wells to pop and see the Gallery. I ended coming out with a couple of items, and I am sure I will be back again and keep in touch. Once again...
