À Table
A new art exhibition celebrating the joy of eating together.
From extravagant Sunday lunches with the whole family to simple suppers with our nearest and dearest, a new art exhibition at the SB boutique in Notting Hill celebrates the joy of eating together. Titled ‘A Table!’, the group show features works by different painters, ceramicists and textile artists, curated by multi-disciplinary artist and stylist Camilla Wordie.
Friends for many years, Sophie and Camilla have worked together on a number of photo shoots. A long-time admirer of her eye for colour, balance and storytelling, Sophie chose Camilla to curate the exhibition because her exquisite sense of style and eye for detail meant that she was beautifully placed to select pieces that will both shine in their own right, as well as work collectively.
The idea was to create an exhibition that reflects on themes that are relevant to Sophie’s clientele and which complement the ethos of the SB brand. At our heart we are a family jeweller, and we know there is nothing more natural and pleasurable than getting together around the table with our loved ones.

Inspired by all things food and the dinner table, Harriet creates uniquely charming hand-tufted cushions, rugs and other home decor. Each piece is designed and crafted in South London
Lettuce and Chicory by Honor Joliffe
Honor's work is about finding structure, pattern and a harmony of colour. She enjoys portraiture and landscape but return again and again to still life. She loves the relationships and quiet conversations that can be built from the everyday objects that are part of our domestic lives. As a mother, cook and homemaker, these are literally the stuff of her days and she enjoys using them to create quiet moments of grace, pleasure and memory. When she needs help, She looks to the greats: among them Chardin, Manet, Nicholson, John and Morandi.
