Katherine Huskie has been working with glass for over 10 years. Huskie started experimenting with glass at college and subsequently went to the University of Sunderland where she studied for a BA (Hons) in Glass and Ceramics.

Glass blowing has taken Huskie all over the world including a year based in Australia where she worked with numerous different glass makers to expand and broaden her knowledge. The experience provided Huskie with the passion and determination to push her own glass designs. On returning to the UK she set up Devereux & Huskie Glassworks with James Devereux.
