I (Steven Baker) have been in the world of glass making for many years, trained at Dartington Glass in 1977 and worked in many factories all over the country. I went on to own a Bristol blue glass factory in Bedminster, Bristol with my partner Angie. After many years and pressures of owning a very busy factory we decided to sell up and get back to enjoying the art all over again with a small glass blowing studio, we have also employed another glassmaker (Chris) who is a specialist in the art of lampworking. we are in the heart of chew valley where we now specialise in many one off gifts and teaching the wonderful art of glass blowing to students, you can also find us on Facebook

Brilliant workshop for location, tools and most of all the teacher Steve and assistant Angela. They really put you at your ease and talk you through every step of the process. It was great that there were only 2 of us and managed to create 4 lovely pieces. I would love to have a go again and progress a bit further. Great value for money compared to similar classes. Again Steve and Angela were brilliant with their support and encouragement.

The glass blowing workshop was fantastic. I had a fab experience. I am a complete beginner never having done anything like this before. The instruction from both Chris and Steve was top notch. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anyone wanting to have a go. Thanks so much for a super memorable experience!
