About the Designer
David Palmer England
David Mayhew's love of the ocean started as an officer in the British Merchant Navy, which led to countless other ships and ocean voyages over the years, carrying him to remote areas of the world. In addition to deck officer and ship's captain, he also worked as a lighthouse keeper on the last two manned lighthouses in Australia. Nature is essential to the designer's well-being and an important source of inspiration in his work. He now lives in Tasmania, Australia, where the wilderness is never far away. Today, along with the occasional voyage captaining a traditional sailing ship, Mayhew works as a carpenter and joiner, crafting furniture and design objects from wood in his workshop by the beach and prefers to work with traditional tools.
David Palmer's first collection of dinnerware, Poem, is inspired by the central coast of California and the fields and woods the artist explored as a child in upstate New York. Within Poem there are suggestions of wind and water currents, light waves, the nuclei of cells, flight paths of birds and insects, and sounds at frequencies too high to hear.
