02 Astra Glass


astra_czechoslovakia_label.jpg

Astra Glass are a bit of a mystery. Some of their glass is marked Made in England, some Made in Czechoslovakia, others made elsewhere. Images of marked examples are welcome here to try and build up a picture of their output and activities. The advert for Jones and Co (Glass) Ltd. and examples labelled JC are pointers towards the company that used ASTRA GLASS as a brand name.

Richard Hugo - Dent


Richard_Hugo_1.jpg

Richard Hugo joined Dent Glass in 1971 straight from Edinburgh College of Art. It was set up prior to Richard's arrival to be a glass cutting shop under the umbrella of a company called Heredities Ltd, makers of cold cast bronzes, however this fell through and the idea of glass engraving by sandblasting was mooted and this is where Richard came in. Later the company moved to Kirkby Stephen and eventually Heredities decided to pull out in 1982 and Richard took it on as a one man band in Kendal, engraving only. He had many interesting customers and recipients of his work, ranging from the Queen and other members of her family, through the likes of Spike Milligan and the Greater London Council. Adverse trading conditions forced the studio to close in 1989 and since then Richard has been out of the glass world.
