Company description

Glass Artist, Davia Walmsley - the first female president of the British Glass Manufacturers Confederation - founded Daedalian Glass Studios in 1986. In 2017, Davia's son, Joe Walmsley succeeded as Managing Director and became the second generation of the family at the helm of this family-run glass studio. With over 30 years of glass production, the studios have delivered on thousands of projects and their glass designs can be found worldwide. Project locations include five star hotels, royal palaces, super-prime private residencies, superyachts, places of worship (all faiths), embassies, Oxbridge Colleges (Oxford University and Cambridge University), and luxury retail outlets. As trends have changed over time, so too has the studios design focus. This had allowed the studio team to develop deep skill-sets in a wide range of glassworking techniques. These include cast glass (lead crystal), etched glass, laminated glass, fused glass, kiln formed glass, slumped glass, painted glass, silvered glass (antique mirror, gilding), and stained glass and leaded lights. Another key selling point for Daedalian Glass Studios is the scale of production that can be accommodated in-house. Thanks to a continual programme of reinvestment in the studio facilities, Daedalian Glass Studios can create large glass panels - at a scale usually associated with industrial production methods rather than the traditional, hand-crafted market niche.
