Echinus in Tea, round glass sea urchin inspired centrepiece by Katherine Huskie

About the Item

'Echinus in Tea' is a unique handblown and sculpted decorative glass centrepiece by the British artist, Katherine Huskie. An early introduction to glass at college saw Katherine Huskie go on to study glass and ceramics at the University of Sunderland. It was during this time that she specialised in blown glass which has become her constant and continued passion. The owner of ‘Huskie Glass ‘and co-owner of ‘Devereux & Huskie Glassworks LTD’ - specialising in creating glass for designers and artists from the UK and overseas - Huskie teaches alongside both practices glass blowing experience days at London Glassblowing and The Glass Hub. Huskie's work has a strong identity with form, colour and especially pattern, taking inspiration from nature, textiles or geometry. Whether it is technique driven or informed by the physical nature of the desired final piece, all works are created with focus and immense attention to detail. Always searching for new influences, Huskie seeks different schemes and ways in which she can incorporate new imagery within her hot glass. Having travelled extensively with her glass, Huskie spent a year working in Australia learning new techniques and gathering experiences and ideas. Huskie was awarded the prize of ‘Wimbledon Championship Artists 2018’ alongside Nancy Sutcliffe. Together they produced 2 large scale glassworks which are on permanent display at the AELTC clubhouse. She was awarded the QEST (Queen Elizabeth Scholarship Trust) grant in 2020 allowing continued training in neon with Masters in this unique art form.

Turbulence in Tea, a Bubble Filled Glass Sculpture / Vessel by Anthony Scala
By Anthony Scala
Located in London, GB
Turbulence in Tea is a unique glass sculpture by the British artist, Anthony Scala. Sculpted and handblown, this artwork is created from very thick glass which is filled with a multitude of trapped bubbles. Each one sparkles and catches the light, all enhanced by the intense yet fading colour of the main form. About this collection in the artist's own words; "My Turbulence pieces have always been a way for me to step back from my precise optical work and re-engage with the material on a more ‘physical’ level. The colours I choose are always soft, muted shades which act as the perfect backdrop for the drama and movement of the effervescence. The shapes are unfussy so as not to detract from the light play given off by the myriad of bubbles. The pieces are blown incredibly thickly. This is to maximise the depth of the glass and impart an intensity of movement to the effervescence captured within each piece" With a career in glass now spanning over 20 years, Scala creates art works that can only be described as acts of precision. As equally beautiful as they are meticulously created and despite being a hugely skilled glass blower, it is with cold working that Scala excels. Initially qualified as an architectural model maker, it was during this time that Scala learnt many disciplines that would be equally relevant to and ultimately inform his practice today. His passion for glass was discovered however during an apprenticeship with Peter Layton at his studio at London Glassblowing. The beginning of a long standing association for him with this acclaimed studio. In 2005 at the age of 27, Scala won the prestigious 'Glass Sellers Award' (other recipients have included Alison Kinnard, Colin Reid, Richard Jackson, and Bob Crooks...
