extra large Sandollar Vase 2 - £145
Glass & enamel 18cm wide x 16 1/2 cm tall. I was lucky enough to sit in the cockpit of a small plane from Bora Bora to Tahiti. I’d had a hellish 48 hours of travel but I have a clear and joyous memory having a birds eye view during that flight of the atolls floating in that wondrous sea and in this vase I share them with you. inspired by lockdown because, much as I love East Sussex and our coast line, sometimes your dreams go a little further than the physical boundaries of life allow.

large southwold reimagined vase - £145
glass vase 15.5 cm wide x 16 cm tall. I never throw out even the smallest scrap of glass be that offcuts, a mistake or a disaster. This vase is made from such glass. it is very much a one off. I cannot reproduce it. nor do I want to, it wouldn’t have the depth that this one has. It changes appearance in different light sources giving you a shelf-full of effects to enjoy. whilst perfect for a bunch of your favourite flowers it is a delight on its own so you can have it permanently on display.

I can’t decide if it’s on it’s way to completion or it’s the easel with the residue pain or is it the walls in a derelict house with the remnants of a colourful and vibrant palette with the light hitting it through an open shutter. You decide.
