“Stained, Fused and Lampwork Glass made in the South Wales valley of Senghenydd”
Hi, a warm welcome to the Dragon Art Glass shop on Folksy. I'm Andrea, a full time glass addict (oops, artist!) living and working in the valleys of South Wales. I've had a little shop here on Folksy since about 2016, but can also often be found at local craft markets and in my studio in Senghenydd.
I always aim to send out orders as quickly as possible, (often within a day), but please be aware that I post only via Royal Mail.
To make things easier for you, I can gladly gift wrap any presents, add a hand-written note and send them directly to the recipient at no extra charge – just leave me a note and details when you checkout.
If you have any questions, then feel free to reach out and get in touch. Thank you for looking (and if you should decide to purchase , a huge thank you!)
Here are some things just listed by other crafters and sellers on Folksy.
I think my glass obsession began in about the year 2000, when I took stained glass classes. I practiced, improved and sold stained glass at local craft fairs - Dragon Art Glass was born.
In 2008 after a lampworking class, flameworked glass became more of an obsession and I was fortunate to be able to purchase a lampwork setup, and set up a small studio with a kiln to anneal the beads correctly.
Hours and hours of practice later, the number of beads made began improving and building up in quantity. This led in turn to jewellery making for family, and friends and eventually selling jewellery alongside stained glass at local craft fairs for a year or two along side 'the day job'.
In 2013 I was made redundant, and was fortunate that I was in the position where I could try and work for myself. I had (most of) the kit I required, and the enthusiasm to try and make it work. I took several courses - to improve my jewellery making; to learn more varied fused glass skills, and glass painting and engraving techniques.
In 2014 I was able to invest in a new kiln, with which to make larger fused glass items.
Now I am pleased to be able to offer for sale not only my own handmade lampworked beads, but both stained and fused glass.
I can happily take commissions so please feel free to convo me if you have an idea for something you would like.
