Glass is an extraordinary material with qualities demanding both technical and chemical mastery plus aesthetic and artistic judgement on the part of the artist. It can imitate other materials and also be imitated. It is capable of being coloured, cast, blown, fused, engraved and more. All methods are used to produce the utilitarian and the mass produced as well as the unique work of art. It is this latter which offers vast opportunities to the new collector.
However, the question to be asked is 'why are not more people collecting studio glass in Britain?' In both Europe and America art glass is seen in the same bracket as mainstream contemporary art and there is a huge market. Is it a question of confidence or lack of awareness? I increasingly believe it is the latter.
