About
During London Craft Week 2026, Fiona Finds welcomes the master artisans of Meissen for an exclusive live porcelain painting experience inside the Fiona Finds boutique.
Founded in 1710, Meissen is Europe’s oldest porcelain manufacturer and a pioneer of hard-paste porcelain. For centuries, its hand-painted pieces have been celebrated for their precision, artistry and enduring craftsmanship. This rare in-store event offers visitors the opportunity to witness these historic techniques firsthand, as Meissen painters demonstrate the meticulous brushwork, colour layering and detailing that define the brand’s iconic creations.
Set within the carefully curated surroundings of Fiona Finds, the demonstration brings together heritage and contemporary retail in an intimate and immersive format. Guests will gain insight into the skill, patience and artistry required to transform fine porcelain into miniature works of art, a process that remains entirely handcrafted.
This collaboration reflects Fiona’s ongoing commitment to championing exceptional craftsmanship and timeless design. By hosting Meissen’s artisans live in London, the event creates a unique cultural exchange, connecting centuries-old European decorative arts with today’s craft-conscious audience.
Visitors are invited to observe, learn and engage with the artisans throughout the demonstration, discovering the stories and traditions that continue to shape Meissen’s legacy. Whether a dedicated collector, design enthusiast or curious visitor, this event offers a rare opportunity to experience one of the world’s most revered porcelain houses up close.
