Condiments Rapidements - New work coming to Crafts Alive!

Introducing 'Cleggington's Luxurious Condiments Liberator', a new piece from the fertile mind of Guild member Nigel Williams.

We'll let Nigel do the formal introductions: 'Do you get fed up waiting for the slow old servants to get around to your table place in order to serve the condiments onto your dinner, all the while witnessing your food rapidly going cold?
Well, here's the solution: when a diner yells "pass the salt", this machine turns up at your spot, and allows you to arrange delivery of the condiments to your meal in precisely the amounts and places you desire, without the need for any servants to do it for you!
Simply yank on each of the appropriate handles, and the condiments come flying across in short order. Job done!
No waiting about, no salary to pay, dinner ready faster! Brilliant!
Now, I wonder what we should do about the mustard....? Maybe keep that servant on for a little while longer...."

Nigel will be debuting the splendid 'Cleggington's Luxurious Condiments Liberator' at Crafts Alive, Rodmarton Manor in Gloucestershire from 10 - 14 September, 2025.
