Roslyn Ashcroft

Material: Jewellery | Location: Greater Manchester
'Roslyn Studio' is a one-woman sustainable jewellery brand based in the North West. Her timeless pieces of vibrant and sophisticated glass jewellery provide an alternative to on-trend colourful plastic jewellery. Roslyn’s jewellery practice is extremely low waste. She often recycles her off-cuts of glass, to creatively re-shape into new pieces, so nothing gets thrown away.

Roslyn creates her glass jewellery using the skilful craft of lamp-working, where she carefully heats and manipulates glass rods using a high intensity flame. Roslyn sculpts her glass as it turns molten and gooey under the flame - twisting and adding colour until she achieves her spectacular shapes and designs.

Each piece is individually sculpted. Roslyn doesn’t use moulds in her process, which means each piece becomes a miniature and unique work of art. Each has their own quirk and personality in their organic shape and lustre.
