Allan Craig

Allan Craig of Arc Designs learned the art of sculpting copper and pewter at Second City Studios(Dave Brown) Glasgow in the late 80s.
For the first few years producing pieces which were a fusion of traditional Celtic and "Arts and Crafts" styles .( Inspired by Archibald Knox and Charles Rennie Mackintosh )
Then, for a period of twenty years designing and producing, exclusively for Liberty's of London, a sort of re-interpretation of the traditional "Arts and Crafts" style, a range of mirrors, mantel-clocks ,candle sconces and lamp-bases.
From this beginning a new style was gradually to evolve which was  more abstract and contemporary with an organic feel to it.
