Bristol Blue Glass was founded in 1988 by James Adlington, with the help of glass maker Peter St Clair. The aim was to re-establish a tradition that had been lost for over 60 years, the art of glass-making. Although most famous for its traditional Bristol Blue Glass, the Studio Shop also sells a variety of art glass in number of amazing colours and not only Blue! Bristol Blue Glass also sells its glass online so check out www.bristol-glass.co.uk or from its studio in Arnos Vale and shop in the city centre.
There are a number of courses available, allowing visitors to try their hand at the art of glass making and learn some of the skills required to fashion molten glass into beautiful and useful objects. These classes are currently designed for beginners but can be tailored to individual’s skill level as required.
