Blown Away

A portfolio of extraordinary objets d’art

The sculptures featured in this article come courtesy of London Glassblowing, which has counted among the world’s most fêted showcases for glass art since 1976. A visit to its Southwark flagship will reveal an ever-changing collection of one-of-a-kind works by celebrated makers – as well as a behind-the-scenes look at the artisans in situ at its adjacent studio.
