From small-batch production to artisan-made designs, Hanscomb Glass Studio bridges the worlds of craft and production. Their signature products - the Portal Medallions and Icicle Ornaments - demonstrate this blend of precision and creativity. Gisela’s hand-twisted icicles add a sparkling, one-of-a-kind touch to winter décor, while Neil’s Portal Medallions, with their textured, clear, and sandblasted glass, offer a bold, contemporary take on stained glass artistry.
