Harry Potter / Zelda Mantel Clock

Customised Harry Potter and Zelda Mantel Clock, Chipperfield Handmade.

Harry Potter / Zelda Mantel Clock

This bespoke clock was made for some dear friends of mine who love both Harry Potter and Zelda. One side features Hogwarts, the other Hyrule Castle from the game Zelda. The front face of the clock has their initials shrouded in an ornate floral design, with the Golden Snitch and Navi flying amongst the branches. The top of the clock has a quote from Harry Potter gilded across it. The quote is taken from a discussion about love between Dumbledore and Snape, 'After all this time? Always'.

I love doing bespoke clocks as I know there is no other piece of furniture like it and it is such an honour to see it in someone's home knowing it will be well-loved and looked at every day, made especially for them.

What the customer said...

The most intensely beautiful clock that we will be able to treasure forever. It is pride of place in our living room. Unbelievably good!

Pet portraits make great gifts

For pet portraits, I predominantly use oil paints or Caran D’ache pastel pencils on pastelmat paper. The resulting texture is very smooth and velvety, which I think is perfect for drawing animals. Once completed, each drawing is sealed with a finish to protect the artwork over time to give a long lasting characterful drawing of our favourite four-legged friends.

Prices (from £300)

One Head (£300)

Full Body (£500)

Two Heads (£600)

Portraits of you and your loved ones

I enjoy painting and drawing a wide variety of subjects in a realistic style.  I am intrigued by the detail in nature and how light works. I love to break the constraints of the two dimensional surface to create artworks that are as lifelike as possible. My goal for each portrait is to portray a convincing and realistic likeness with depth of personality and character.

Bespoke illustrations for books, websites & more

Illustration is one of my favourite types of artform. Through lucid colours or whimsical line drawings, I strive for my illustrations to provide visual escapism. I mainly use watercolours, inks and pencils and for digital illustrations I mainly use Adobe Photoshop. As a child, I was fascinated with the drawings of E.H Shepherd, Arthur Rackham, Quentin Blake and Raymond Briggs who have all become my biggest inspirations in bringing fantastical stories to life. I have always believed that there is real magic that happens in bringing stories to life through illustration and it will continue to inspire us all - no matter our age!

Hire me for your event

Weddings, funerals & special events

I have been playing at weddings and events for nearly 10 years and it never ceases to amaze me how humbling it can be to be a part of such a special and meaningful day. Whatever the event, if you are stuck in choosing music, I am always happy to help with any suggestions. My motto is, ‘if it has a tune, my harp and I will play it for you. I can also recommend examples of popular music choices that I have played for similar events over the years, but I am more than happy to learn any song you like - literally, anything goes! If you would like to mix things up, I can also play guitar for you (or piano, if there is one at the venue).

Prices (from £400)

1 hour playing (£400 + porterage & petrol)

2 hours playing (£550 + porterage & petrol)

3 hours playing (£700 + porterage & petrol)

Add depth and space to your music

For the past 10 years, I have had the honour of performing on a range of albums and with studios such as Universal Studios, Cafe Music Studios and Bridge Row Studios. I love both live performance and working in a recording studio. I specialise in creating harp music for an eclectic mix of music styles. The harp is an incredibly versatile instrument, and there are a whole range of harp techniques that can be used to add depth and texture to a piece of music; harmonics, bowing, string bends (using the pedals), glissandos, arpeggios, nail strums and many more. I am available for harp performance and recording. For recording I either work from my home studio or I can travel to you or your studio of choice. Artists I have recorded and performed with include: Sam Smith, Surie, Mamas Gun, Suburban Dirts, Royal Holloway Philharmonic, Matt Coldric, Jack In Water, Austin Basham, and Dave Gerard Band.
