Welcome To Yellow Dog GlassWelcome to Yellow Dog Glass. We are one of the leading contemporary dichroic glass jewellery makers in the UK. We use dichroic glass, silver and advanced fusing techniques to create stunning jewellery suitable for all ages and occasions at affordable prices.
In our family run studio we design and create unique pieces of fused and dichroic glass to make into jewellery and unique items to decorate your home. We are situated on edge of the Mendip Hills overlooking the beautiful Chew Valley Lake, just south of Bristol. Every piece of fused glass jewellery and glass art we sell is handmade here in our studio, using Bullseye fusing glass and Sandberg Dichroic glass.
Our aim is to produce unique, exclusive and affordable pieces. We continuously produce new styles and colour-ways, and every piece is individually photographed for the online shop. What you see is what you get - with dichroic glass, no two pieces are ever identical. | Dichroic Glass JewelleryI have been making fused glass since 2000, and have seen the popularity of dichroic fused glass jewellery increase hugely. Many people will be familiar with its sparkle and unique ability to change colour as the light angle alters. The dichroic we use most is made by 'Coatings by Sandberg (CBS)', who produce the widest range of colours, textures and patterns, and associated glass products which make the jewellery so interesting and varied. There is no limit to the number of different designs and colour variations that can be produced. No other type of glass catches the light and exhibits colour change in such a dramatic way as dichroic glass. | Glass ArtIn the shop you will find a range of fused glass items to bring the vibrancy of coloured light into your home. Hanging panels can be hung in a sunny window or if you prefer you can buy a fused glass window picture that can sit on a window cill. | WorkshopsThe workshop is designed to give you a basic idea of the cutting and fusing processes, with comprehensive notes supplied. The emphasis is on actually having a go and producing some beautiful pieces for you or for gifts. The pieces will be fired after the session and then we will discuss how you want the pieces made up. Your finished creations can then be posted on to you or you can arrange to collect them. Many students get the glass bug and come back again for another session! You will leave the class with a basic knowledge of the craft, if you wish to take it up as a hobby, or just relax and enjoy the therapeutic effect of free creativity!
