the sound of breaking glass



Students work and the lovely Bottle of Whaligoe mineral water made by James Maskrey.
















Some of the students work.


















Squeeezing and bending.


















The heating rods.


















Twisting and turning.


















Jim Maskrey picking up the molten glass.



















One of the fiery furnaces full of molten glass.
















Images from a week long glass making masterclass at North Lands, for students from Sunderland University, given by James Maskrey the "Glass Master" as Aran called him. It was hot! and shiny, and wonderful to witness.
