Thomas Petit Glass has operated in Derbyshire since 1999. I use my home as my base but make my hand blown glass at a Studio I occasionally rent, which is located at Unit 18, Lumsdale Mills, Lower Lumsdale, Matlock. Derbyshire. DE4 5EX.
Last year I set up a small gallery space with back packing area called 'Thomas Petit Handblown Glass' , The Old Telephone Exchange, Main Road, Hulland Ward, Nr. Ashbourne. Derbyshire. DE6 3EA. I display my firsts & have a corner set aside for seconds, experiments & old stock, as well as a table with mounted photographs & greeting cards.
At present it is open by appointment (07817151826) & with me living only 20 minutes away, it doesn't take long for me to get there, assuming I am free. I am contemplating having at least one or maybe two regular opening days per week from March- possibly Wednesdays & Saturdays when I'm not away doing shows.
My blown glass can be viewed on my website & you can keep up to date with what I am doing & where I am exhibiting by looking at my business page on Facebook, https://www.facebook.com/thomaspetitglass/?fref=ts
I currently only stock one Derbyshire based Gallery - Gallerytop in Rowsley.
I will be taking part in Derbyshire Open Arts, but will be at the glass studio doing glassblowing demo's with my fellow exhibitor Jonathan Abbott of Lumsdale Glass.
