Colin & Louise Hawkins

BRITISH GLASS ARTISTS

However, Colin and Louise’s formal training is not so much what sets them apart as a true appreciation of the foibles and follies of glass, gained early in their careers by working alongside some of the last great ‘gaffers’, the traditional artisans of the British glass-making world.

Now modern-day gaffers in their own right, Colin and Louise are committed to creating the very best studio glass to represent and promote the industry in the UK and abroad.
