There’s a real person behind each of our products Here is what some of our makers say about Seek & Adore.
“On Seek & Adore customers can find out more about me. Whether it’s reading an interview with me, keeping in touch via my wall posts or asking me a direct question I feel really connected to the people who buy from me.”
Timea Sido
“It's expensive and time consuming to set up your own selling website. Seek & Adore makes it easy for me and supports me with marketing and PR. As a result, I spend more time in my studio.”
Kate Schuricht
"Whether because I took up woodturning later in life, or because I am just fascinated by wood, I do love to talk about it. It's a real pleasure when I'm asked questions through the Seek & Adore website as it gives me an opportunity to think and communicate about what I do."
Richard Shock
