Still Working and Open - Rosedale - 18th March
Of course, the situation with Coronavirus is changing rapidly. It seems almost daily that we have new advice.
We are doing our very best to navigate these choppy waters. We remain very much open for business are fulfilling orders by post.
We will continue to blow glass and so, therefore, by nature of the process we have our doors open and will welcome visitors.
Keeping in mind our health and the wellbeing of our assistant, we will continue to monitor the situation and be guided by expert advice.
In these difficult times, we are focusing on springs bounty and enjoying the fresh air of the North York Moors.
Thank you for all your support and we hope you all stay safe and well.

Crucible - Changing the Pot
The furnace is off as we change the crucible, ready for the year ahead making glass. The pot corrodes over time and develops holes or cracks, which can, eventually go through and create all kinds of havoc for a glassmaker. This pot has been in the furnace since summer 2017 and is ready to come out. Hope to have the furnace relit next week and have the beating heart of the building return to warm this stone building through.
Happy New Year 2020
A very happy new year to you.
We are looking forward to this new year for many reasons. We have plans made, many of which will involve celebrating our 25th year making glass together in Rosedale.
Please join our studio mailing list to be the first to learn of special events and exhibitions.
In January and February each year, we work behind closed doors and resume our usual opening hours on March 1st.
We still accept PayPal orders during this time and if you would like to visit the studio, please call ahead to arrange an appointment.
Thank you.
Warm regards from Rosedale,
Stephen & Kate
