Our Story
Inspired by Stained Glass
In 1978, our stained glass studio workshop was established. Twenty years later, we placed a few contemporary mouthblown glass vases and small leaded panels in our studio window. We were amazed and delighted by the positive reaction from our customers. Soon, these unique glass designs were being purchased and taken to new homes.
Handmade and Mouth Blown Glass
We have since continued our passion for creating and sourcing distinctive contemporary glass objects. Over the years, we have designed and crafted our own fused glass art and glass jewellery here in the studio. I am always excited to showcase new pieces of unique mouthblown glass to our customers, each stamped with the distinctive JC signature of John Corley. Our collection includes our own handmade jewellery and contemporary glassware by renowned glass artists such as Peter Layton, Bob Crooks, and Will Shakspeare.
