Sometimes the word 'gallery' simply isn't enough. Yes, it's the core of a business dedicated to the best in painting, printmaking, sculpture and ceramics. But here the books turn into paintings, the paintings turn into films. Watch our short film to find out a bit more about us and what we do.

Sid Burnard was born in Brighton in 1948. Introduced to the art of beachcombing by his Romany grandmother, Sid learnt to appreciate the beauty of nature from an early age. His time at Bristol Guild of Applied Arts gave him a profound understanding of visual arts and crafts and allowed him to put his personal vision into practice.
He is now based in Borth near Aberystwyth in Wales, where the flotsam and jetsam from the nearby sea is his only source of materials. Working with found objects, nothing is changed - simply introduced to one another. His driftwood pieces, usually birds, boats or mythical beasts, are full of his passion, integrity and wonderful humour.
NEWS: New exhibition running from Saturday 25th April to Sunday 17th May 2026. View exhibition work below. Click here for more information >

"29.8.24. Dear Sir/Madam.
Attached photo/words relate to one of your products found whilst beach-combing West Wales shores. Would you have any objection to it being used in an exhibition catalogue at some point?
Kind Regards,
Sid Burnard"
“30.8.24. Good day Sid,
Thank you for asking. Our marketing department said you are good to go.
Good luck.

Components: Wheel nut-measure (bird's head). Fragment of body. Bottle-top. Green ball. Spring.
Early 1980's. Heavy rush-hour traffic on spaghetti junction M6. Torrential rain. I'm driving a large van at 70 mph in the outside lane. Alongside an articulated lorry, something flies up...BANG! Windscreen shatters. Punch a hole so I can see where I'm heading. Glass shards in my face, mouth, hair. Hazard lights. Try to ease into the centre lane. No-one lets me in. (Imagine multiple pile-up.) Stay calm. It takes half a mile to reach the hard-shoulder. Emergency services. I notice a 'bullet-hole' in the screen just above the steeling wheel.
Windscreen replaced, continue journey. That afternoon, cleaning out broken glass, I find a sheered off wheel nut/bolt behind my driving seat. It went around, rather than through me. It weighs 8oz. I still use it as a paper-weight
(The product is now available in more than 90 countries on 6 continents.)

What our customers say
Wendy
The picture I had arranged to see was ready for me and staff gave me lots of time to look at it and decide, but I loved it as soon as I saw it. No pressure. Very knowledgeable, friendly staff. I had great advice on framing and protective glass.
Paul
Astonishing place. Driving home I realised it was probably the best experience I've ever had in a shop/gallery. I'll be filling my house with their artworks for years to come. A unique place.
Terry
Just received my Kang-hyo Lee teacup. In perfect condition. I’m so happy with it and I think the international service offered by Goldmark is superb. The staff are so kind and extremely efficient and professional.
Graham
Goldmark have the most astonishing range, from the very affordable to the upper echelons of the market. The staff are incredibly knowledgeable and really helpful. For anyone wanting to start a serious art collection within whatever budget this could be the best place to start.
David
There is no other gallery like Goldmark. I'm always amazed at both the stock they hold and their ability to regularly source really quite special pieces of art. That, with their friendly, knowledgeable & utterly unpretentious style makes them a delight to visit & to buy from.
Christine
Their delivery service is 100% reliable and the breadth of work displayed on their website pretty amazing. Above all, unlike other such dealers, I have never been under any pressure to buy. I recommend you give them a try.
Vanessa
We first visited Goldmark approximately 6 years ago and immediately liked the informality compared to previous gallery experiences. It’s a great place to start or build on your collection. Everyone at Goldmark is very friendly, knowledgeable and will give you as much or as little time as you wish.
Sharon
Great pots, exquisitely displayed, expertly packed and shipped all over the world! The storytelling about potters and their methods has been extremely helpful, Goldmark is fabulous!
Mark
Always friendly and helpful staff with an amazing ever changing gallery of wonderful art and studio pottery! Would highly recommend a visit!
Philip
We have bought prints and pots from Goldmark over many years and our house is the richer for the collections we have built up. The framing and delivery service are faultless.
