Short profile:
Our beautiful and elegant glass bowls are crafted by hand. Made from the very best raw materials, each one is hand blown and decorated in our studio in North Yorkshire. The bold and modern designs feature bright colours and graphic patterns. We only create a limited number each year, so they make a special and unique gift for any occasion. With our contemporary approach to design, we’re breathing new life into the ancient tradition of glass making.
Detailed description:
Partners in life and art, Stephen Gillies and Kate Jones operate from a studio in the village of Rosedale Abbey in the North York Moors. Drawing inspiration from the elemental beauty of their rural surroundings, they have developed a unique aesthetic.
Their 'defiantly decorative' work can be found in both public and private collections in the local, national and international arenas.
Alongside their prolific art practice, they also undertake prestigious
commissions and regularly lecture both in the UK and overseas.
Stephen Gillies is a glassmaker and blows all the forms in hot glass. Kate Jones is a painter who specialises in glass and sand carves each piece.
You can visit their Rosedale studio year round and view exhibitions of new work.
