    We are delighted to have in our collection four works by the contemporary ceramicist Charlotte Hodes, winner of the Jerwood prize for drawing and the first Associate Artist at the Wallace Collection . Taking the arts of 18th century France, Hodes has produced the most beautiful works of art which are wholly contemporary yet intrinsically connected to the past. They are on display in our gallery in Jermyn St. in the largest known piece of furniture by the 19th century designer Owen Jones- a cabinet made for 16 Carlton House Terrace in the 1870s.

    Charlotte is a Reader in Fine Art in the London College of Fine Art.
