Kim – one of The Chorus Collection.
Chorus girls wear a single rose, with a cast rose cradle to rest their ‘hat’ while the decanter is in use.
‘Rose Couture’ revisits the glamour, individuality, and chic sophistication of the Art Deco period with her troupe of exquisite wine and spirit decanters.
Masterfully blown by Elliot Walker, the Chorus, Principal, and Diva decanters are crowned with Laura Hart’s cast glass rose bonnets. The elegant Chorus girls wear a single rose; the sinuously graceful Principals wear posies of three to five flowers whilst the spectacular Diva bouquets can incorporate a dozen or more blooms.
Attending each lady is a ‘Hat stand’; a cradle of cast roses into which their bonnets can safely rest, creating a stunning table centre whilst the decanter is in use, or as a complementary candle sconce.
Every decanter is named, signed by the artist, and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
Born the year the Beatles sang ‘Love me do’ whilst the world cowered under their kitchen tables waiting for a Cuban missile to land in the back garden.
Somehow managed to guess my way through the twelve plus into grammar school, then had a major epiphany at fourteen after my only brother died in a car crash.
Consequentially, I dumped state indoctrination as soon as I was legally able and ran away to drama school. I couldn’t find a circus.
Spent three years learning to be other people, often brandishing a blunt sword whilst singing bad limericks to music. Lived in squalid theatre digs, got drunk and stoned a fair bit and worked in nightclubs to pay the £12 a week rent for my room.
Moved to London to live with my delightful cad of an uncle. My life in showbiz began and I reckon I must have had an absolute ball for several years as I don’t remember much.
Had a couple of husbands and several narrow escapes, but menopause knocked all that nonsense on the head over a decade ago.
I’ve rolled up my sleeves and transformed piles of decaying stone into beautiful homes, which caused me to break several bones and bugger up my back. So, I went to college to learn CAD and 3d modelling and animation.
Which led me to design some crazy big art installations, stage sets and gigantic metal birds.
It also brought me to the glorious world of glass art and that’s where I’ve been hiding for the last dozen years.
Oh, and I wrote a couple of books too.
Third one on its way, if I can keep dodging the bullets . . .
