The Master Glass Blowers

Ryan Manuel

Lead Glass Blower

I have been working on and off in the glass art industry at various studios since I studied fine arts in college at Tshwane University of technology in the early 2000’s. I mainly did bench work with soft glass for most of that time and have always wanted to setup my own studio where I could work with other like-minded people creating all kinds of beauty out of the most magical art medium I’ve ever worked with.

Theuns van der Westhuisen

Apprentice Glass Blower

Theuns is the studio apprentice and the current shining star behind most of the work currently in our functional smoke-ware range. He’s been an avid glass art enthusiast and has wanted to get into the industry for years. He has been working with soft glass flame work since 2017 and is now expanding his creativity into the world of borosilicate glass.
