Sculptured Crafts is a
Scottish family business located in Alvah, Banffshire,
Scotland, with the main office located in Duston,
Northamptonshire. For those 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 of
Diana, the Princess of Wales.
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;

through various amendments to what we believe is an

introduced in a planned range of historical sculptured
figures, personalised heraldic items and Scottish Clan
