I am an Architectural and Decorative glass artist based in Argyll, Scotland.  Working in glass since graduating from Glasgow in 2005.  I am inspired by the beauty of Argyll, nature and travels as well as the glass as a medium in itself. I use a wide range of techniques to add colour, texture and movement to my pieces.

I sell through galleries and shops as well as attending shows such as The Country Living show. You can also contact me and buy through my website, and I undertake commission work, so please do get in touch.

Alice Heaton – Glass artist of AAH Design. I am a Cheshire based designer working primarily with hot glass. Taking inspiration from nature, I produce richly colourful and dynamic individual blown sculptural pieces. I gained a First Class Hons in Design Crafts in 2016 at De Montfort University. Inspiration is taken from organic forms in […]

I make fused glass panels to commission. These can be used for windows, screens, splashbacks and lighting. My work is inspired by nature generally and the Devon countryside in particular – but I quite like a challenge too, so please feel free to push me out of my comfort zone!

I have been working as a stained glass artist since 1994. Using these techniques I make individual pieces of jewellery and mosaic. Using the copperfoil method (glass, copperfoil and lead free solder), my jewellery combines glass, paper collage and mixed media. I also make glass and paper tiles that I use in mosaics. All of my work can be personalized, incorporating text, names or dates into the collage.

I work from my studio on the coast of the beautiful Gower Peninsula. I specialise in creating contemporary and original black and white papercut artwork. I love simple, bold and graphic imagery and I aim to create designs that bring a smile. I am inspired by the naivity of primitive art, the humour of childrens’ […]

Cheryl is a glass artist with over 10 years’ experience. She creates characterful glass and stone sculptures which are heavily influenced by her upbringing in Cornwall. Her work is sought after by a loyal customer base in the UK as well as further afield in Canada, America and Australia.

Contemporary hand made glass beads. I create each bead individually in a flame, and they then grow into unique pieces of jewellery. I started my career as a glass blower and have gradually began working in a smaller scale to work more intricately with colour.
Enjoying superposing the light of juicy transparent glass, and the deep pithy intensity of opaque colours. By peeling through these layers it’s possible to create edible fruit like seeds – chilli pepper and pomegranate, kiwi and prickly pear…spikey gooseberry or peppery damson.

I design and make contemporary kiln formed glassware including home accessories, personalised gifts, jewellery, wall art and splashbacks. Exploring colour combinations and mixing translucent, opalescent, iridised and dichroic glass with metal inclusions, I also experiment with different temperatures to create perfectly smooth or highly tactile pieces. My work is predominantly abstract, defined by the fabulous range of colours available. Nature is a major source of inspiration – geological patterns and elements, trees branches and roots, shore findings – but it is the material itself, the way it transforms from solid to liquid and reveals its amazing hues and textures which keeps firing my passion for glass. Originally a mosaic artist, I trained in Bristol and work from my studio near Pershore where I run workshops and have a number of kilns and workbench space available for hire by glass fusing enthusiasts.

Catherine Mahé designs and makes contemporary kiln formed glass products for the home from her studio in Altrincham, Cheshire.

Her pieces are distinctively colourful and heavily inspired by print and fabric pattern. She enjoys experimenting with different shades of colour and combining opaque and transparent glass for exciting light effects. Her love of glass fusing began when she was originally working with mixed media mosaic, and she’s been exploring kiln formed glass techniques through books, tutorials and workshops for the past 5 years. Prices range from £10 for small hangings to £140 for larger bowls.
