Organiser Joanne Gowan said:

I am very excited to be hosting this event for the second year in Harrogate, especially as I am now based just up the road in Pateley Bridge. It gives Yorkshire people a great opportunity to buy from the best of artisan jewellers and silversmiths from all over the UK, without having to travel too far.
