Tatty Devine X Lucy Sparrow

From bananas to bubblegum: original, fun felt artwork meets laser cut acrylic in our upcoming colourful collaboration with artist Lucy Sparrow. Get a sneak peek at fun jewellery while getting to know a little more about the artist behind pop-up felt fish-and-chip shops and iconic banana motifs.


Banana Peel Necklace

Basil The Banana Necklace    £70

For those who’ve been living under a rock or hiding in a soup can, can you describe what you do in five words for those who don’t know?
I make felt parallel universes!

Waffle EarringsWaffle Earrings    £55

Food, colour and fun are always at the heart of your artwork. Where does your inspiration strike most?
Definitely in everyday familiar consumer spaces; I love them all - corner shops, chippies, sweet shops and supermarkets. The places we visit continually that connect us all.

Shopping Trolley PendantShopping Trolley Pendant    £45

Your felt artworks translate so perfectly into acrylic jewellery. How did it feel to see this collaboration come to life?
A Tatty Devine collaboration has been on my wish list for years, so I'm incredibly excited to see it happening. The felt was screaming out to be jewellery! I couldn't be happier.

Bubble Gum Necklace

Bubble Gum Wrapper Necklace    £60

Can you tell us a story or fun fact about any of the designs in our jewellery collection?
I designed most of the pieces at 30,000 feet on a flight to the US - the next part was definitely not fun, as I left my iPad on a plane in Arkansas.  After a lot of calls and a dash to the lost property desk, we were reunited!

Mac and Cheese NecklaceMac and Cheese Link Necklace    £135

Phew! Your exhibition at the Momentary Museum in Arkansas features over  20,000 handmade artworks that bring together an American supermarket. For our UK fans who can’t visit The Beginning of Convenience,  can you describe what one might spot in the show?
If you've seen one of my installations in London, it will be very familiar, but on a massive scale. There will be 4,000 square feet of felted supermarket, plus a recreation of my Suffolk studio, complete with a huge installation including 3,500 individually hung bananas. 

The Beginning of Convenience is inspired by US supermarkets from 1975-1995, that era when changing roles within the household led to the proliferation of quick and easy consumer goods, such as microwave dinners, frozen foods, and out-of-the-box meals.

Cheese BroochCheese Slice Brooch    £42

What fascinates you most about the US grocery shopping experience?
I am obsessed with packaging and branding, so I love to see the aisles full of technicolour products. On my last trip to the US, I made about 10 different supermarket trips; I had to buy an extra bag for the plane to get all of my favourite products home.

Basil The Banana Brooch    £55.

Now tell us, which Tatty Devine X Lucy Sparrow design will you be wearing to opening night?

That's a tough choice, as I am in love with all of them.  But I would say the Basil the Banana necklace.

Shop Tatty Devine X Lucy Sparrow online and in our Covent Garden store from 11am on 16th July 2026.
