Our Reedveld bookcase was pictured in the April, 2011 edition of SA House & Garden in a piece about our retail partner, Ebony. They are currently stocking our full Reedveld collection, which comprises the bookcase as well as the Reedveld chair, the Reedveld server and the Reedveld table.

Douglas&Co showed items from their latest furniture ranges at Decorex 2011, which was held at the Cape Town International Convention Centre from 29 April to 2 May 2011.

Decorex is a wonderful showcase of interior design and decorating. It's not just for those in the trade -- it's a great source of inspiration for that special place in your life.

Visit the Decorex website for more information about the exhibition.

We are excited to be displaying our latest furniture pieces at The Siding, corner of Main and La Provence roads (just outside the centre of town) in Franschhoek.

The picture to the right shows our latest (as-yet-unnamed) table piece, with chairs from The Sofa Studio - our friendly neighbours at The Siding.

Come back soon for more information about that new table.

A wall of vases - Collaborative installation by Hennie Meyer and Clementina van der Walt

Douglas & Co Reedveld Server, Reedveld Bookcase and Hunch 106 dining table were used as furniture for displaying works of Clementina van der Walt and Hennie Meyer at the Irma Stern Museum in Rosebank, Cape Town, in the upstairs gallery. The Gallery consists of approximately 45 running metres of exhibition space in three different adjacent galleries.
For the past 6 years, well-known South African ceramists, Clementina van der Walt and Hennie Meyer have been selected to exhibit at Ceramic Art London, an international ceramic expo at the Royal College of Art. This joint exhibition is a reflection of the experience and influences of their annual pilgrimage abroad. The work of both these artists is very different, but in many ways is driven by the same impetus. The high quality of international craftsmanship and exploration of form and content, as well as exposure to historical ceramics via the wonderful London museums, has motivated these artists to internalise the awareness acquired through the experience and apply it in the South African context. This has resulted in what promises to be a varied show - their familiar signature work, and new pieces - with a strong emphasis on utilitarian ceramics. Both artists have exhibited extensively throughout South Africa, and have work in several public and private collections.
