Engraved Guipure Lace Glassware

The Guipure Collection is centred on life's significant celebrations. From weddings and anniversaries to retirement gifts and presentation pieces, each engraving adapts the same traditional lace language into designs prepared specifically for glass. The result is a collection that feels connected while allowing every commission to remain personal.

From Artwork to Engraving

Each commission follows the same studio process, from artwork preparation and proof approval through to hand sandblasting and finishing in our Fife workshop.

The Story Behind the Collection

The stronger forms and decorative structure associated with Guipure lace translate particularly well to engraving, where clarity and contrast play an important role. Our interpretation adapts these qualities for glass, creating a collection suited to larger engravings, personalisation and commemorative pieces while retaining the character of the lace that inspired it.
