a Scottish family business located in Alvah, Banffshire, Scotland,

who do not know the geography of the United Kingdom, Northamptonshire
is in fact in England. Duston itself, is a village on the edge of
Northampton, just a couple of miles from Althorp House, the birthplace

James Miller Wilkins, the creator of Sculptured Crafts was born in the
West Highlands of Scotland in Glencoe House, Glencoe, Argyllshire.
Having spent a number of years working in sales & marketing with
various national and international companies. James retired early to
combine a hobby with a love of history and Sculptured Crafts was born.
Both his children, Aileen and Grahame, who work in the business, were
born in Edinburgh, Scotland’s magnificent capital city.
When a television presenter once asked James what brought him to
England, he replied;
"I came down as a missionary, having heard that the natives in the
southern part of Britain (England) drank a strange white liquid made
from juniper berries (gin) and I emigrated south to introduce the
heathens to the true spirit (scotch)."
On a more serious note, at Sculptured Crafts we pro actively strive to
provide our customers with a high quality product; produced with
minute attention to detail and supported by excellent customer
service. You can expect to receive an exceptional quality product

The figures you see displayed on our web site are the product of
almost five years development; from the original knight sculpture
through various amendments to what we believe is an outstanding obje
d'art. The knight was the first to be introduced in our expanding
range of historical sculptured figures, personalised heraldic items
and Scottish Clan sculptures.
