Louise & Colin Hawkins work together to produce this amazing hand blown glass. Louise trained at Goldsmiths College in London, after which she took the one year Glass Techniques and Technology course at the International Glass Centre, Brierley Hill. Colin trained in glass at Sunderland University and the Royal College of Art, London. They formed their partnership in 1998 and were awarded the Broadfield House Scholarship in 1999.
Edwards and Hawkins have a fresh and innovative approach to glassmaking, whether it be special commissions, interior accessories or production runs of functional pieces. Their work is forward thinking and exciting with an emphasis on creative design and skilled craftmanship. Each piece is hand blown without the use of moulds, and made in their characteristic style, using a variety of both traditional and modern techniques.
