Galerija Silverbirch

51 Watergate Street, Chester CH1 2LB

Located in the heart of this historic city, Galerija Silverbirch was opened by Karyn Libecans in October 2004 and offers an outstanding selection of art works of every kind. The gallery occupies an interesting building with a vaulted ceiling that is believed to have been part of a 14th century monastery that stood here. Subdued lighting accentuates the white walls and highlights the imaginatively displayed pieces around the gallery; contemporary music plays softly in the background. There's a good choice of modern paintings, both originals and framed prints.

Some truly striking sculptures are carefully positioned for maximum effect. Smaller items include hand-made jewellery in silver and precious stones, especially Baltic Amber; hand-made wooden lamps and decorative pieces such as toadstools and mushrooms, and mirrors in wooden frames. The gallery also stocks a superb range of furniture, hand-made using English woods such as oak and elm chests, dressers, coffee tables, chairs all in delightfully original designs; and a range of colourful ceramics. A great place to visit if you are looking for gifts with something very special about them.
