Love these flowers and our vases together. Feel like a kid in a sweet shop everytime I see a bunch of these blooms.

Our solo exhibition, Portrait of Place, will run from October 10 to November 9, at the Moors Centre in Danby.

This collection of new pieces in Swedish Overlay engraved glass and monochrome works is a study of the North York Moors landscape.

The exhibition will be free entry (unless stated below) and no booking is required, however, numbers of visitors to the gallery will be managed in line with current safety considerations.

Kate and Stephen will be at the opening ticketed event on October 9, please click here if you would like to join us.

On October 24, Kate will guide tours around the work at 11am, 11.45am, 1.30pm and 2.15pm; further details here.

As we live through and celebrate out 25th year making glass in Rosedale Abbey, in the most extraordinary of times, we are delighted to have the opportunity to present our new work in contemporary engraved glass.

We hope you are safe and well. Very warmest regards Stephen and Kate

The last few pieces are being made in Swedish Overlay ready for the exhibition which open on 10th October in Danby.

Love this pic, capturing the moment just before the two bubbles touch and are pushed together.

Overlay is a challenging process, with only one way to get it right, and a thousand ways to get it wrong, the most common is air, trapped between the two layers and the process is then abandoned.

The grey ball vase has returned to our shelves. Love this colour with reds, and like the black vase, it suits pretty much all other flowers.

Placing flowers in the vase is easy, either a simple bloom from the garden, a small posey or the hedgerow.

Sundays walk and the colour red appeared in the hedgerows, the Rowan tree was laden with fruit. The boughs heavy with berries, quite incredible.
