    Simple and powerful

    I saw what Jan could do on the TV and was utterly amazed with the skills he had to work with natural materials and create simple but powerful sculptures. I couldn’t decide between 2 sculptures so ended up getting both and I couldn’t be happier with how they turned out. Jan was very helpful throughout the whole process and is definitely someone I would go back to when I’m next looking.

    A simple and powerful message carrier

    I watched the tv show where jan showed how his talents had developed and I was drawn by the simplicity yet powerful emotional impact his work had on me. My purchase now provides the love of my life A Little Hug whenever she views or touches our beautiful sculpture.

    Simply Beautiful

    Absolutely gorgeous piece. Came extremely well wrapped so I was almost loathe to unwrap it to check (it's a gift) glad I did as it's delightfully tactile and beautifully finished. Hope the recipient is as pleased as I am

    I bought 'Small Hug' for my wife as an anniversary present after seeing it when Jan was on the TV. I'm really impressed by the simple beauty of the piece and my wife absolutely adores it.
