Calken Gallery? At the top of the class.
From our very first inquiry about a piece of sculpture – to the final delivery and payment – dealing with Naomi from the Calken Gallery was an absolute pleasure. Communications were clear and to the point and what was promised was delivered. Integrity? Absolutely.

Wonderful
My wife and I are so delighted with our beautiful sculpture Solstice. We’ve now found the perfect place for her to live and she looks amazing. I’d just like to thank Naomi for her wonderful customer service, it was a real pleasure to get to know you. Please give my regards to the wonderfully talented Michael Talbot.

Fantastic service from start to finish
Fantastic service from start to finish. This gallery also made the impossible possible by going out of their way to send me my purchase overseas in order to arrive for a very special occasion.
I would heartily recommend them.

Great art…Great service
Artwork always looks great in the studio but trying to place it in a perfect position at home can be another matter.
So when Naomi offered to bring the piece to our home (120 miles north) we were very impressed. More so, when we found the perfect location to show of this beautiful piece by Michael James Talbot.
We are delighted with the sculpture and cannot complement Calken Gallery enough. Thank you Naomi

I had experience of Michael Talbot’s skill and artistry when I sat for him while he sculpted my head in bronze.
I was greatly impressed by his artistic genius, his professionalism and his patient and inspired attention to detail. He, for me, is the Calken Gallery and I feel privileged to have seen him work at first hand.

A credit to the company – excellent service.
I purchased Ariadne by Michael James Talbot through Naomi Hickling. She was really knowledgable and extremely pleasant during my time with her. I recommend Calken and especially Naomi whose personal style is non-evasive and really quite charming.

Exceptional sculpture and impressive customer service.
I bought the beautiful bronze sculpture Cortigiana by Michael Talbot from Calken Gallery. It arrived beautifully packed in a wooden crate exactly on schedule. I am very impressed with this company. The quality of the artwork was matched by the impressive customer care.
