Traditional
Stained
Glass

My stained glass artworks are all handmade from my studio in North Yorkshire. Every piece is lovingly handcrafted to order, making them all one of a kind. 

My inspiration is drawn from nature. Having been a lifelong plant addict, creating botanical inspired glass seemed to be fate. Each piece I design is first sketched, the glass is then cut by hand, sanded smooth, copper foiled and finally soldered together. It is a process I adore.

After studying for a fine art degree in London, I later discovered stained glass and have been captivated ever since. The genuine joy that is derived from seeing your stained glass illuminated in the morning sunlight is truly one of life’s greatest pleasures.

My stained glass artworks are made using the traditional ‘Tiffany copper foil’ method which dates all the way back to 1880. This now rare and delicate artform allows me to capture the fragile and intricate details of plant life. 

I use lead-free solder on all of my pieces. This is a more eco-friendly choice from traditional leaded solder. Which is better for both people, pets and the environment, as lead-free solder is more eco-friendly during its production and reduces the amount of hazardous waste. During my crafting process I endeavour to tread lightly and reduce my global impact where ever possible.
