Women-owned

Originally from South Africa, I moved to the UK in 2002 and now live in the picturesque Wylye Valley, a place that constantly inspires my creativity with its stunning landscapes and natural beauty. I have a deep passion for the arts and textiles, specializing in home décor, personalized gifts, and jewellery. My work draws inspiration from both my South African roots and my life in the UK, with a strong influence from nature, the sea, and animals—textures playing a key role in my designs.

For the past few years, I’ve been working in all aspects of fused glass, exploring its versatility and creative potential. During this time, I set up my glass business, Glasschick, a name inspired by my love of both glass and our chickens.Glasschick was created out of her love for both chickens and glass, when Lilly, the Silkie and part of the family, materialised onto the logo in an act of serendipity. I particularly enjoy working with modelling glass, a unique and exciting way to shape glass and precious metal silver clay, which can be used together or on their own, allowing for intricate and expressive designs.

My glass art is featured in various exhibitions across the UK, and I’m passionate about sharing my knowledge and skills with others. I will be teaching at various locations across the UK, offering workshops for both beginners and experienced artists who want to explore new techniques and creative possibilities in glass art.

I'm one of the founders of UK Glass Art Collective and also a member of the Contemporary Glass Society, Plain Arts Salisbury, and Salisbury Art Scene.
