The store showcases bold, contemporary, pieces from the founder herself and other independent artisans across the UK and abroad from tactile ceramics and colourful jewellery to unique home décor and stationery.

Faryal said: "Knottinger was born from a love of handmade design and a desire to create a space that feels fun yet neat, welcoming and full of personality. "We wanted to build a little hub for people who love discovering something new, supporting small businesses, and being surrounded by creativity."

Knottinger opened with a soft launch earlier this month and has already started turning heads with its vibrant coral store front, gallery-like displays and cheerful community vibe.
