I created a Kraken inspired lantern for my lovely supportive fiancè I'm so glad he likes it!
​
The tentacles are handpainted enamel on glass that were fired in the kiln before the panes were inserted into the metal lantern.

925 - made to order

I love silversmithing and hope to dedicate more of my time to it this year.

I typically only work with silver and glass - wrapping our handcrafted dichroic glass pendants in a unique silver setting.

However a family friend was looking for a unique birthday gift to be made for her friend, and gave me the design they were looking for.

The whole piece had gorgeous movement and sound, with the heart suspended from the hoop, as well as a separate free-moving tassel at the bottom.

Oh I do wish to be beside the seaside.

We've had some gorgeous sunny days this Easter, and I just wish we lived a little closer to the coast.

I've just had to make-do taking photographs in the sun of our Ocean inspired glass homeware not quite the same as being beside the sea, but it'll do.

Handcrafted kilnformed glass platter with clear texture and a wispy semi-opaque centrepiece.

A recent pet portrait made to order for a birthday gift.

This Rottweiler doggie has such a sweet face swipe right to see the photo inspiration.
A perfect gift for the garden, solid granite decorative stepping stone with glass mosaic.

I create our glass mosaic designs inspired by nature or as pet or animal portraits. Contact us if you would like a bespoke design made.

The tomato room

A very unusual commission from a lovely couple who wanted a mobile made for their son who has a 'Tomato Room' greenhouse attached to his home.

I spent a some time looking at tomato's and came up with a design showcases the different stages of the plant as well different types of tomato's.

The mobile is created using thick wire and has so much movement, and the tomato's themselves have copperfoil overlay to create the leaves, hammered copper wire for the stems and hand painted details.
​
I'm so happy with how it turned out, and I think I see more mobile hangings being made in the near future.

International women's day

Happy International Women's Day!

We just wanted to take the time to introduce ourselves to all of our lovely new followers using an old photograph from before the days of social distancing.

I'm Georgia (Rachel's daughter) and I handle all of the social media as well as online sales via our Etsy shop.

My Mum (Rachel) established our wee glass studio almost 5 years ago after relocating to the Scottish Borders and spending a few years away from the glass world. She has been creating fused glass art and dichroic jewellery for over 12 years.

I joined my Mum last year in the business and I create the stained glass, silver jewellery and polymer clay jewellery. I have a fashion and design background, but I grew up learning stained glass at a young age from both parents, and I love the craft.
Unfortunately our studio/gallery at Harestanes is closed to the public due to Covid restrictions, and we would normally have various workshops and classes available throughout the year.

We really want to thank all of our friends, customers and followers for their continued support and kindness. It truly means a lot to small businesses during this difficult time.
