Working mainly in glass and ceramics, Jessamy often combines the two materials in one piece. She refines her work using traditional handcrafted techniques such as engraving, diamond cutting and sandblasting.

Simple and elegant in style, each piece of art glass is a limited edition and is a signed original.

Based on a soft, sensitive aesthetic, her sculptural and sensual forms draw inspiration from diverse natural forms, landscape and the human body.

“Glass and ceramics are materials with many common qualities; processed in similar ways, they are transformed into functional or decorative objects. They are however, not often combined in artistic practise. The translucent blend of glass and ceramics intrigues me, when light passes through the materials to reveal an inner beauty and luminosity. This accord inspires me to combine glass and ceramics, examining their relationship in my studio work.”

Jessamy’s knowledge of industrial glass design and manufacture has established her as a specialist in the field. Her clients include companies such as Edinburgh Crystal and Kevin McCloud’s homeware brand ‘Place’.

As a design consultant Jessamy draws on her specialist glass design skills and manufacturing knowledge. Clients benefit from her expertise in prototyping, product development, supplier liaison and manufacturing. Working closely with her clients, Jessamy designs bespoke pieces, appropriate to their specific requirements or environments; most commissions are undertaken.

“Working directly with manufacturers to develop new production processes inspires me to design innovative and forward thinking designs, in a simple, elegant style”.
