Radiant Works The New English Royal Delft

"Laik actually means to play, Laikingland is built around the notion of encouraging playfulness.  Complimentary to this, our work represents our interest in narrative, humour and craftsmanship.  Our hope is that creating designs around these themes will encourage everyday playfulness in the lives of our customers."

“The company's goal is to make Laikingland’s products available to customers around the world.  New designs by invited artist / designers will be developed and launched annually.”

“We will manage our business through various international retail networks and support it by building long-term constructive relationships with our UK suppliers, our highly talented team of associates and the skilled craftsmen who assemble our products in the North of England.”


The Laikingland studio is located at: Radiant Works, Back Union Street, Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, HD1 6AL, UK.
