The beautiful world of glass art
Glass art has captivated people for centuries with its colour, light, and craftsmanship. From window suncatchers to sculptural pieces, there's a style for every home. Here's a beginner's guide to the main types.
Stained glass
The classic — pieces of coloured glass joined together (traditionally with lead or copper foil) to form panels, windows, and suncatchers. Stained glass glows beautifully when light passes through it.
- Loved for: windows, suncatchers, panels, and lamps.
Fused glass
Layers of glass are melted together in a kiln to create plates, panels, jewellery, and decorative pieces with rich colour and texture.
- Loved for: bowls, plates, wall art, and coasters.
Blown glass
Molten glass is shaped by blowing air through a tube — a mesmerising craft that creates vases, ornaments, paperweights, and sculptures with flowing, organic forms.
- Loved for: vases, ornaments, and sculptural pieces.
Glass mosaic
Small pieces of coloured glass arranged into patterns and images, set onto a surface. Mosaics bring colour and texture to art panels, mirrors, and decorative objects.
- Loved for: wall art, mirrors, trays, and decorative panels.
Etched and engraved glass
Designs are carved or frosted onto glass surfaces, creating elegant patterns on vases, panels, and glassware.
Lampwork and glass beads
Glass is melted over a flame to create intricate beads, small figures, and jewellery — delicate, detailed, and collectible.
