Sif Wolthers
 
Born 1973 in Copenhagen, Sif moved to England in 1994. Following a BTEC National Diploma in General Art and Design at Stamford College, she went on to study Three Dimensional Design at the University of Wolverhampton, specialising in Glass & Ceramics.

After finishing her BA Honours in '98, Sif relocated to the beautiful cathedral town of Salisbury in south Wiltshire. 

Here Sif spent several years as an Artist-in-Residence; first in a local school, then a factory and subsequently at the Design & Contemporary Craft Emporium Fisherton Mill. Then having successfully applied to The Prince's Trust in for a business start-up loan and grant, Sif was in January 2005 finally able to set up her own studio in new premises right in the centre of Salisbury.

Now settled in, Sif's studio designs, makes and markets exciting and original artwork in glass, silver and ceramics. There is a full and varied range of high quality items including dishes, vessels, coasters, hangings, jewellery, decorations, figures and much, much more. Plus also the fun and imaginative "Bottle Pranks" collection made from fully recycled glass bottles. Both quirky and practical!

The company now makes a wide selection of beautiful glassware that is highly collectable, stylish and often functional. They employ an eclectic mix of traditional and modern techniques to produce highly individual work which brings their ideas to the forefront of UK glass design.
