Glass Bauble
Benefield Spencer Glass
A finely crafted, hand-blown glass bauble. These delicate, yet durable, decorations are made using the traditional filigrana* cane pattern in white stripes and swirls that Benefield Spencer has become so well-known for. Each piece is made by Scott and Andrea in their studio on the rugged north Antrim coast.
The baubles measure about 7cm in diameter and hang on a festive red ribbon. Available in two patterns, striped and swirled they should be handled with care.
*Filigrana is the generic term for blown glass made with colourless, white, and sometimes coloured canes which originated on the island of Murano, Italy. It is a highly skilled process that gives a 'swirly' pattern to handblown glass.
Our Story
Clare Grennan and Laura Caffrey established Irish Design Shop in 2008. A love of Irish craft and good design led these two jewellers to set up a retail space which offered customers both. Irish craft was witnessing a revival at this time, with a new breed of Irish designer/maker producing exciting, design-led products which embraced traditional and new techniques.
