Hello. I am Ed.

As you can see from the photographic evidence, I possess a head, a moustache, and an apron. These are the three primary components required to run Smalley Glass.

I operate out of a workshop in Derbyshire, where I engage in the centuries-old tradition of cutting perfectly good sheets of glass into smaller, sharper pieces, and then putting them back together again using lead and patience, or sometimes a lot of heat and some crossed fingers.

I specialize in traditional lead came techniques, sgraffito etchings and fusing glass. My work is inspired by the natural world, mainly foxes, birds, and the occasional geometric abstraction. Every piece is handcrafted, meaning it contains genuine character and, very occasionally, a microscopic piece of my soul (or thumb).

Every purchase you make, allows me to buy better biscuits for the workshop.
