Well hello there!

Hi, I'm Connie and I'm the artist behind Trefoil Stained Glass based here at St Michael's Mews in lovely, leafy Hampshire. I design, hand-cut, solder and polish all my own designs (as well as sweep the floors and make the tea!) so every piece is 100% hand-crafted by me!

SO WHAT DO YOU DO?

I specialise in the copper foil technique more commonly known as 'Tiffany glass', popular during the Arts & Crafts era. It is a meticulous and exacting process but one which I find meditative - my studio is my sanctuary and I'm in my element pottering away, radio on, surrounded by a rainbow of broken bits and a snoozy cat in the corner!

 

My work is inspired by a smelting pot of nature, folklore and pagan ways as well as the Medieval and Celtic aesthetic synonymous with the Arts & Crafts movement.

I strive to capture the organic essence of a subject through colour, light and line; by combining traditional glasswork techniques with contemporary soft solder and metalworking methods, I create detailed, textural pieces that feel both modern yet timeless.

WHERE CAN I BUY YOUR WORK?

My PORTFOLIO illustrates a selection of past pieces to offer a flavour of my style of work.​

Current glass available to buy now online through Folksy can be found in my SHOP while details of fairs and exhibitions where you can see my work in person are in UPCOMING EVENTS

Alternatively, if you would like to enquire about any of the items you see or wish to discuss a bespoke piece, you can contact me by completing the form in COMMISSIONS.
