Treat yourself or a friend to a pair of handmade glass Curlew Coasters. A unique gift ideal for those who have a love of the sea or bird life.
Living near the coast in Portsmouth I am blessed to have had wonderful coastal views. I have been enchanted by the wonder of the curlew bird with it’s unmistakable piping call.
Each coaster is handmade in my Portsmouth workshop. No two will be exactly the same, each will be your very own piece of glass art.
Suitable for both hot and cold drinks.
Approximately 10x10cm so great for larger mugs.
Please note these coasters are on “backorder”, allow 4-6 weeks for making and delivery. Thank you!
The process….
Clear glass is cut to work on as my base. Glass enamel powders are then sieved to create the landscape of my coastal curlew scene. It is then time to kiln fire to form a smooth flat surface. The flat surface allows me to apply the screen print of the curlew. To cure the screen print the coaster needs to be fired for a second time. After product check rubber bumpers are added so the coaster can be placed on any surface.
A matching fruit bowl is available.
