About us

In our Durham moors studio we do and teach fused glass - created for sale, for commissions, for exhibitions. Best of all we like running guest workshops!

Join our hands-on kiln glass workshops at The Glass Shed. Perfect for beginners and experienced crafters alike, our sessions offer a creative escape while learning new skills. Create personalised coasters, decorative panels, and unique art pieces under expert guidance. Consett Co Durham is our nearest town.
