I am a glass artist who's been designing and creating bespoke contemporary stained glass commissions since 1998.

I would love to help you create your own glass piece of your choice to take home with you at the end of our workshop together.

The classic look comes from the Danish furniture designer Hans Wegner, the style of weaving cord has a cool mid century look, and has had a massive rebound in modern day furniture and interior design.
