We are very pleased to announce one of our new pieces has been selected for the British Glass Biennale 2024.

"One hundred and twenty-one artists were selected out of 326 applicants to present the most interesting, diverse and outstanding glass art made in the UK in the last two years.

The work forms a cutting-edge showcase of contemporary British based glass talent. 

Prize winners will be announced at the awards ceremony on 22 August at the Glasshouse, Stourbridge. Winners of the prizes chosen through public votes will be announced at the closing ceremony on 28 September.

The selected artists have been brave and innovative, using a wide range of styles and techniques both traditional and experimental."

Kate has an exhibition of new work 'Oculus' at Vessel Gallery London from May 1st until June 12th. 

We have been making a series of new spun roundels and large bowls, developing and abstracting themes around the landscape and introducing new works that reference the sky and beyond.

Images and more details to follow of the pieces in monochrome and colourful overlay glass.

"It's been wonderful, creative winter, working with new materials and ideas, exploring established patterns and making fluid linear marks on the surfaces of some beautiful glass Stephen has made for me".

We are looking forward to sharing images of the exhibition in due course. If you are in or near London I hope you can visit. 

The exhibition will be on during London Craft Week May 13 - 19 so that's two reasons to head to town.

Sometimes, we make our studio bowls in a larger size.

We have a larger Monochrome Summer leaves available in the studio at the moment. Drop me a line for more info.

Our vases have just a small hole in the top, perfect to hold a single bloom or a small posey from the garden. They do vary from vase to vase. When you order if you'd like a larger diameter, drop me a line and I will take a look and find you the largest aperture of the days making.

The garden is full of hellebore, such a wonderful bloom.

I really enjoy bringing a few inside for our vases.

Simplicity itself... a Hellebore gathered from the garden in one of our small white vases.

 

Our studio exhibition closes this weekend. New work in Swedish Overlay engraved glass, plate, bowl and sphere forms. .

For the first time, Stephen has been making our flower vase in many different colours. The image shows our classic studio production piece in French Grey with wire flowers by Lucy Elisabeth. These are available to order here on the website, drop me a message of you'd like the grey.
