Gifts & Artwork

Barretts is lovely place to visit and simply browse in a relaxed atmosphere, so if you are looking for a wedding gift, a present for someone special, or that finishing touch for your home, pop in for a look.

We have ‘Thomas Kent’ wall and table clocks in a range of styles, colours and sizes from Art Marketing, all made in the Isle of Wight.  Being particularly patriotic, the Union Jack and ‘Spitfire’ ceramic table clocks are firm favourites.  We have beautiful wooden sea-bird scultures from Archipelago, and gorgeous framed prints also from Art Marketing, Marshall Arts, and The Art Group, many with a sea-side, maritime feel.

Our ceramic and bone china mug collection is famous!  Whether you are a “Keep Calm and Carry On”, or perhaps a “Now Panic and Freak Out” person, there’s a witty, encouraging, or darn-right silly mug just for you.  We also have gorgeous mugs from our favorite designer Orla Kiely, everything from the delightfully bright ‘Multi Stem’ print to the contemporary and urban ‘Car Park’.

As a Wedding Gift we have a great range of luxury towels from Christy, or the designer ranges from Orla Kiely and Cath Kidston.  Duvets and bed linen is essential for anyone setting up home, and our selection is impressive.  For children or baby gifts we have charming collection of bed linen, blankets, mobiles and cuddly toys.  For the kitchen there’s aprons, tea cosies, oven gloves, fine melamine tableware, and decorated storage tins.  We have an adorable range of animal doorstops, draught excluders, and paper weights, and for that special occasion there’s our assortment of scented candles.

We have a large and colourful selection of PVC and cotton carrying bags of all shapes and sizes on display.  Another practical and beautiful gift option is our colourful decorative glass kingrings in presentation boxes.

To wrap things up we have gorgeous gift paper and gift tags from Emma Bridgewater and Orla Kiely, plus an assortment of cards, and even pretty bunting to add atmosphere to the party.  If you are completely stuck, why not get a Barretts voucher?  Don’t forget, the range is constantly changing, so it’s always worth popping in for a browse.  You will be very welcome!
