Specialised Work

At Twists Glass Studio we make our specialised production to museum standard.  These designs have evolved throughout the decades and are usually more technically difficult pieces to make.

They are production so there will be pieces made that are the same or similar, there will also be pieces with changes of colouration within the cane work. I spent many years in production sometimes working in teams to produce over a thousand items a day, and so I quite like the idea of a hundred Zanfirico owls all being coloured differently!
