Jo's Glass Friends
Happy times in Bavaria.
Great memories of the college trip attending a glass symposium at Fraunau . While getting stuck in to glassmaking at the international glass conference Jo was invited to work with Willem Heesen.
De Oude Horn
Working with Willem Heesen at De Oude Horne, Leerdam, Holland was an exciting opportunity

Anthony Stern and beyond
Fresh from her adventures making glass with Willem Heesen at De Oude Horn, Jo returned to the UK and soon began to work at Anthony Stern Glass in London. After almost five years of fun filled, creative and exciting times working with Anthony Jo went on to work with a number of glass makers before starting to work at Bransfield Glass in 2016.
Here and Now at Bransfield Glass
Situated in farm buildings near Aylesbury Bransfield Glass is such a fun studio to work in.
