Spotlight On: Independent Makers at Spitalfields Market
11/08/2026
From handcrafted jewellery and original artwork to independent fashion, unique interiors and homeware, Spitalfields Market is a mecca of unique goods – an Aladdin’s cave for Londoners and visitors alike.
Beneath its weatherproof canopy in Crispin Place, you’ll find up to 110 stalls, each offering its own distinctive products, stories and ideas. Whether you’re refreshing your wardrobe, searching for a thoughtful gift or simply browsing, the market is filled with unexpected finds.
Focusing on simple, elegant pieces for every occasion, Naye’s minimalistic jewellery collection includes delicate bracelets, dazzling earrings and beautifully crafted rings. The brand also regularly collaborates with Korean designers, bringing together contemporary design with a passion for thoughtful craftsmanship.
Combining a love of music with a passion for upcycling, founder Josh launched Retro Progression in 2012 to prevent unwanted vinyl records from ending up in landfill.
The brand began by transforming records into clocks, with customers able to choose a record that meant something to them and have it made into a clock at the market. The process does not damage the vinyl, meaning the record can still be played once the clock mechanism is removed. It’s the perfect stop for music lovers, or those searching for a gift with a story behind it.
