Our annual Silent Auction is open for ten days only, celebrating fifty years of glassmaking with works from Peter Layton's personal 'Highlight' collection alongside archival pieces from our resident and guest artists. To guide you through the lots, the gallery team have shared their favourites and the stories behind them, from a never-before-seen Fabrica platter to the smallest Portal Tim Rawlinson has ever made.

We are incredibly proud to announce that Peter Layton has been awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award at Collect, and he is the very first person to receive it. Read Peter's acceptance words, reminiscing on his extraordinary career and contribution to the world of glass.

This International Women's Day, we're shining a light on four talented artists from our studio - just a few of the remarkable women making their mark in glass. Historically framed as a male-dominated field, women have always been present in the story of glass, especially at London Glassblowing, and today they are redefining its future.
