Making a simple bowl by hand is something we enjoy

Making a simple bowl by hand is something we enjoy.⁠
⁠
It's our speciality.⁠
⁠
A timeless form with clear colour and intricate engraved surface patterns.⁠
⁠
We believe the form of the bowl is timeless, as are our designs which sit comfortable in a traditional or contemporary home.⁠
⁠
Every piece is signed around the punty on the foot. ⁠
⁠
We leave the makers mark as proof of the process.⁠

Our Classic Long Leaf ‘Beautiful Bowl’ in mono

Our Classic Long Leaf ‘Beautiful Bowl’ in monochrome glass.⁠
⁠
This design has been with us for at least 20 years and we think it’s safe to say it’s timeless.⁠
⁠
Once again this design is influenced by Morris & Co and the Arts and Crafts Movement.⁠
⁠
You can see the many different colours we make in this design on our website.⁠

We have the final two available, of twenty five larger limited edition Bramble bowls.⁠
⁠
A black glass bowl engraved with leaves, berries and rambling blackberry, with an opaque green lip wrap.⁠
⁠
It won't be long now before the brambles start to wake from winters cold and lay down buds for autumns fruits.⁠
⁠
For me, the bramble the brings back many happy memories of long walks, brambling with my father.⁠
⁠
A timeless monochrome design. Each bowl is signed dated and numbered.⁠
⁠
Our online shop is still open and we post our 'beautiful bowls' on a tracked and traced service with the Royal Mail.⁠

Smokin hot.....⁠ ⁠ The Final touch on the rim

Smokin hot.....⁠
⁠
The Final touch on the rim of the bowl with a wooden paddle cools and shapes the rim of a finished piece.⁠
⁠
Every bowl we make is free blown, hand formed and hand finished.⁠
⁠
This accounts for slight subtle, unavoidable variations in each piece.⁠
⁠
The makers mark remains within every piece.⁠

Summer Leaves in Black Glass⁠ ⁠ This design is

Summer Leaves in Black Glass⁠
⁠
This design is an homage to William Morris and his incredible nature inspired patterns. Morris, one of the 19th Century greatest designers and a key figure in the Arts and crafts movement continues to have a huge influence in the 21st Century. ⁠
⁠
His work on show at Blackwell House has had a major influence on our studio production designs over the years. ⁠
We love Blackwell House.⁠
⁠
Our hand blown, engraved glass bowl is made to order in any of the colours of our studio production in opaque or transparent glass.⁠
⁠
Our online shop show the design only in cobalt blue.⁠
