Canal crafts, canal artists, canalware & canal gift shops

One of the most attractive features of our canals is the colourful decoration of canalboats and their equipment. The ‘roses & castles’ tradition of decoration survives today, not just on the canals but on prized craftware possessions in homes throughout the world.

We list canal crafts people who produce hand painted canalware, canal artists depicting canal scenes and the craft and gift shops specialising in canals.

  • Distinctive canal art work can cover nearly everything on narrowboats! The painted and decorated Buckby can on the cabin roof, headlamp, bucket and the lining and scrollwork on the cabin sides. Pictures and posies adorning the walls inside the cabin and the cabin doors that lead inside. Discover much more about the origins of the canal arts and crafts in our full section on Canal Folk Art.
  • If you want a skilled craftsperson to paint or decorate your boat we list Boat Painters and Signwriters.
  • Eric Gaskell has created some striking limited edition lino-cut prints of scenes around the Canal System, you can see them on our Canal Guide pages. They make very affordable holiday mementoes or presents to grace a living room wall or narrowboat saloon.
